Description
Photograph of a ship setting a smokescreen on the ocean, [s.d.]. The ship is in the background at left, but is not visible due to the large cloud of smoke that spreads from left to right, getting taller as it goes. In the foreground at left, a small gun is visible on the deck of the ship from which the photograph was taken. Large swells can be seen in the foreground.
