A slightly distant port near broadside view of the hulk of the steamship Great Britain (1843) afloat and being manoeuvred towards the submerged pontoon Mulus 3 (Fl. 1970) in Sparrow Cove, Falkland Islands.
A slightly distant port near broadside view, taken from just ahead of the beam, of the hulk of the steamship Great Britain (1843) afloat and being manoeuvred towards the submerged pontoon Mulus 3 (Fl. 1970) in Sparrow Cove, Falkland Islands. The masts of the Great Britain have been removed and she has been pumped out sufficiently to float her over the pontoon, which is on the left. The motor fishing vessel Malvinas (1945) is alongside amidships.
