Argonaut (1879)

A 12x10 negative. A port very near broadside view, taken from only just ahead of the beam, of the passenger cruise ship Argonaut (1879) at moorings in Gravesend Reach, River Thames. She is flying the blue peter and a pilot flag and has an unknown flag at the foremast truck, presumably a houseflag. Tilbury Fort is in the right background.
