A slightly distant starboard very near broadside view, taken from only just abaft the beam, of the passenger/cargo liner Minneapolis (1900) in Gravesend Reach, River Thames, heading downstream. A small steam passenger launch is alongside and two "Ring" tugs are stationed ahead. The Tilbury-Gravesend ferry Thames (1868) is crossing the river on the left. Tilbury Fort Watergate is in the background.
