Otranto (1909)

A 12x10 negative. A slightly distant port near broadside view, taken from only just ahead of the beam, of the passenger/cargo liner Otranto (1909) at anchor in Gravesend Reach, River Thames. She is flying the blue peter and her name pennant from the foremast. A tug and a steam passenger launch are alongside her. Two of the Tilbury-Gravesend ferries are on the left and Tilbury is in the background.
