A black and white photograph depicting a large ship being guided by a tugboat on a river, with a distinctive suspension bridge in the background. The bridge is busy with vehicular traffic, and the ship is emitting a plume of smoke from its funnel, contributing to the industrial atmosphere of the scene.
