This photograph captures the excitement of the Boat Race held on the serene waters of the River Valdivia in the picturesque city of Valdivia, Chile, South America, circa 1905. The tranquil coastal city, known for its stunning architecture and rich maritime history, comes alive with the energy of this annual event. The river, dotted with lush greenery and charming buildings, serves as the perfect backdrop for this thrilling competition.

Their uniforms add an intriguing layer of history to this already fascinating image.
