Fezzano on the Gulf of Spezia; The Gulf of Spezia, 1875
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an evocative photograph that transports us back in time to the picturesque Italian coastal town of Fezzano, nestled on the shores of the Gulf of Spezia in the late 19th century. The image, taken from "Illustrated Travels" by H.W. Bates, published by Cassell, Petter, and Galpin in London around 1880, offers a glimpse into the rich history and culture of this beautiful Italian town. The photograph captures the stunning natural beauty of the Gulf of Spezia, with its crystal-clear waters reflecting the vibrant blue sky and the rugged Italian coastline in the background. The town of Fezzano is depicted as a quaint and charming resort, with its whitewashed buildings, red-tiled roofs, and narrow streets. The church, with its tall bell tower and cross, stands proudly at the heart of the town, a testament to the strong Christian faith that has shaped the region for centuries. The scene is bustling with activity, with fishermen preparing their nets and boats at the jetty, and locals going about their daily business. The photograph also reveals the importance of water transport in the region, with several boats moored at the shore, ready to take passengers and goods to their destinations. This photograph is not only a beautiful work of art but also a valuable historical document, offering insights into the architecture, geography, and lifestyle of Italy during the 19th century. It invites us to explore the world through the eyes of a traveller, and to appreciate the timeless beauty and charm of this fascinating corner of Europe.
