A distant port quarter view of the Peninsular & Oriental Steam Navigation Company cruise ship Viceroy of India (1929) anchored and moored in the Saltsjon at Stockholm, Sweden. She has both anchors deployed and is moored to a buoy astern. She has an accommodation ladder rigged to a shell door amidships and a rubbish lighter is alongside further aft. She is flying the Blue Peter from the starboard yardarm on her foremast. On the right, and seen from wide off her port quarter, is the Holland-America Line cruise ship Rotterdam (1908) and beyond her is the Gdynia-Amerika Line cruise ship Pilsudski (1935), both ships being dressed overall. The photographer is looking north-west from an elevated vantage point in the Katarina district showing the Gamla Stan island in the background.
