Description
Crowds of passengers are gathered on the deck of a ship, with many standing behind a roped barrier, perhaps signifying a division between different classes of passengers or areas of access. Below deck, people seem to be in a more cramped space, with laundry hanging and others appearing to be in a more relaxed or informal setting. The attire and the ship's features suggest this photograph may be from the early 20th century, capturing a moment of travel typical of the era.
