A view of a Norwegian tanker alongside a berth in Port de Bouc, Lavera, France, taken from on board the tanker Malwa (1961).

The Norwegian tanker bears a black topped yellow coloured funnel with the emblem of a white flag with a black cross and a white five-pointed star in the middle. A French flag is flying from the starboard yardarm. A Norwegian ensign is flying from the gaff. The yellow international signal flag for 'Q' [meaning My vessel is healthy and I request free pratique] is flying from the port yardarm. Fort de Bouc is in the background on the left hand side.
