EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th or early 20th century, capturing the bustling quay of Messina harbour in Sicily, Italy. The image showcases a picturesque waterfront scene filled with various forms of transportation and trade activities. In the foreground, we see a magnificent sailing boat gracefully anchored at the harbor, its sails billowing in the wind. This vessel represents an era when sailboats were still widely used for transporting goods across vast distances. Behind it stands a row of impressive buildings that line the quayside, reflecting Italian architecture of that time. The location exudes an air of liveliness as people go about their daily routines amidst this vibrant trading port. The harbor serves as a hub for economic activity, connecting Sicily to other parts of Italy and beyond. It is fascinating to imagine how this bustling scene played a crucial role in shaping both local and international commerce during this period. Preserved through time on this lantern slide print, we are transported into an enchanting world where water transport reigns supreme. With its monochrome charm and attention to detail, this photograph offers us a glimpse into the rich history and maritime heritage of Messina harbour in all its glory.
