Men on a ship

Photograph of a group of men standing on a ship, across two decks. A young man stands on the left side of the photograph, on the lower deck. Another young man stands on the upper deck, on the far right side of the photograph. He gazes through a telescope. The young man may be Prince Alfred.

It is possible this photograph relates Prince Alfred's navy career, and his trip to South Africa in 1860. Prince Alfred documented this trip in photographs, for instance RCIN 2917636.
