A slightly distant port bow view, taken from fine off the bow, of the passenger/cargo liner Iberia (1954) in the lock to Tilbury Docks with the tugs Napia (1943) and Dhulia (1959). The liner's bow line is secured to a bollard and her stern is being swung by a tug. The Iberia (1954) is bound in from Australia, having passed Port Said on 9 Apr. 1960. The Dhulia (1959) is seen from fine off her port bow but only the Napia's stern is in the picture.
