A starboard bow view of the Peninsular & Oriental Steam Navigation Company cargo liner Strathardle (1967) manoeuvring to come alongside a wharf at Rotterdam. The photographer is in a slightly elevated position on the quayside and the ship's bow and stern mooring lines are over bollards on the quay. A cargo vessel is berthed astern of the Strathardle and the Blue Funnel cargo liner Theseus (1955) is alongside a wharf in the right background. The harbour tug Frankrijk is standing by.
