EDITORS COMMENTS
Basking in the golden glow of the setting sun, the enchanting harbor of Kavala, Greece, comes alive in this 2003 photograph by renowned British photographer Ethel Davies. The image transports us back in time, as the tranquil waters reflect the ancient beauty of this eastern Macedonian seaport. Nestled beneath the imposing shadow of the 15th century castle or fortress, perched majestically atop the Acropolis of the town, the harbor bustles with activity. Fishing boats bob gently against the shoreline, their vibrant colors contrasting against the crystal-clear waters. The castle, a testament to the rich history of Greece, stands proudly, its walls adorned with the patina of age. The harbor of Kavala has been the main seaport of eastern Macedonia since ancient times, and its strategic location has made it a valuable asset throughout history. The blend of the old and the new is evident in this scene, as modern yachts and fishing boats share the harbor with the ancient fortress, a reminder of the town's storied past. This evocative image, taken in the early 21st century, invites us to explore the winding streets of Kavala, to delve into its rich history, and to savor the flavors of Greece. Ethel Davies' masterful composition and use of color capture the essence of this timeless harbor, transporting us to a place where history and the present converge in a breathtaking display of beauty and culture.
