A port quarter view of the passenger cruise liner Laconia (1922) berthed stern-on to the Compagnie Generale Transatlantique terminal quay in the north harbour at Algiers. The photographer is looking east along the port side from the water next to a line of pontoons alongside the ship. Local traders are on these pontoons selling their wares to the passengers and crew of the Laconia (1922). A passenger liner is in the background.
