EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to Bristol Docks, England in the year 1913. The postcard was sent by a French photographer, capturing the essence of this bustling harbor town. As we gaze at the image, we are transported to an era where ships dominated the river Avon, their majestic presence reflecting on its calm waters. The scene is filled with activity as boats of various sizes navigate through the docks. The buildings that line the waterfront stand tall and proud, showcasing architectural beauty from a bygone era. This postcard serves as a precious piece of ephemera, preserving a moment in history when transportation played a vital role in connecting nations. It's fascinating to imagine how this busy port served as a gateway for trade and cultural exchange between England and Germany during that time. The German influence can be seen through several mentions throughout the caption - reminding us of Germany's rich maritime heritage. As we admire this photograph captured over a century ago, it reminds us of how far transportation has come since then. It also highlights the importance of preserving these historical moments through photography and postcards like these – providing glimpses into our past for generations to come.
