A black and white landscape photograph showing the waterfront at Colombo. Two men can be seen at the far right of the image, both wearing sarong-llike garments and barechested. Another man stands towards the centre of the image, with two bullock carts behind him with a lampost nearby. The men and carts are all stood on a curved spit of land with water behind them. A row of European-style buildings are visible on the far shore. Original caption (handwritten in pencil, beneath the photograph): 'Colombo, Ceylon'.)
