CC-P-0233E.T.jpg

Photograph of the whaler "Bertha" in three-quarters view, with a dock and a large warehouse behind her, taken from across the water. Davits for holding whaleboats are visible on her sides.
The shutter speed of the photograph was fast enough to catch the shape of the waves.
Title from inscription in lower margin.
