The fishing quay in the Port D'Echouage at Dunkirk, France.

The fishing quay in the Port D'Echouage at Dunkirk, France. The photographer is looking east across the basin showing many small fishing vessels alongside the quay in front of the fish market. The Tour du Leughenaer (Liar's Tower), built in 1450, is in the background and the Brasserie Du Port and other commercial buildings are on the left. Small fishing boats with Dunkirk port registry numbers are moored in the foreground. The camera has moved during the exposure. A note on the negative says the photographer was using Camera B.
