The Royal Palace on Gamla Stan island at Stockholm, Sweden. The photographer is looking west-north-west from on board a boat in the Saltsjon showing a number of passenger ferries alongside the Skeppsbrokajen. On the right and seen from just ahead of her port beam is the forward part of the coastal passenger/cargo ship Aeolus (1884); her stern is out of the picture. The Storkyrkan, officially named Sankt Nikolai kyrka and informally called Stockholms domkyrka (cathedral), is on the left and beyond it is the iron steeple of Riddarholm Church.
