A very distant starboard broadside view of the Peninsular & Oriental Steam Navigation Company passenger liner Oriana (1960) at anchor off Suva, Fiji.
A very distant starboard broadside view of the Peninsular & Oriental Steam Navigation Company passenger liner Oriana (1960) at anchor off Suva, Fiji. She has an accommodation ladder rigged to a shell door aft. In the foreground is a signpost giving the distances in miles to various ports around the world, including Pago Pago at 785 miles and London at 10727 miles. The signpost also shows the way to the Grand Pacific Hotel at Suva. The photographer has focused on the signpost, meaning that the image of the ship is well out of focus.
