A port quarter view of the hulk of the steamship Great Britain (1843) afloat and being manoeuvred towards the submerged pontoon Mulus 3 (Fl. 1970) in Sparrow Cove, Falkland Islands. The masts of the Great Britain have been removed and she has been pumped out sufficiently to float her over the pontoon. Her stern is out of the picture. The motor fishing vessel Malvinas (1945), seen from fine off her port quarter, is alongside amidships.
