The floating market and the Waaigat in the Punda district of Willemstad, Curacao. The photographer is looking west-by-north from the north side of the Waaigat showing single and 2-masted sailing vessels berthed on the south side of the Waaigat as a floating market to sell their wares. They all have awnings rigged above their decks. A man is sculling a boat in the foreground and a lighter is alongside the quay beyond him. Motor charabancs are parked on the quayside. An unidentified steam passenger/cargo ship is berthed alongside the quay on the Otrabanda side of Santa Anna Bay in the background.
