The image shows the Russian protected cruiser Aurora, a museum ship, moored on the Neva River in Saint Petersburg, Russia. The angle of the photograph is vertical, looking along the port side of the vessel from bow to stern. Four prominent, grey smokestacks are visible, ascending from the deck towards a cloudy, overcast sky. A lifeboat is positioned between the third and fourth smokestacks. The vessel's gray hull is lined with rivets and circular ports, some of which appear to be illuminated. Black anchors are visible along the hull. The vessel is bordered by the dark water of the Neva River.
