Constanta, Romania: A Historic Seaside Scene from 1902 This evocative black-and-white photograph captures a moment in time at the picturesque port city of Constanta, Romania, on the shores of the Black Sea. The image, dated 1902, showcases the elegant Royal Yacht of King Carol I, anchored gracefully in the harbor. King Carol I (1839-1914) was a significant figure in Romania's history, serving as the country's first monarch from its unification in 1859 until his death. In the foreground, the statue of Ovid, the renowned ancient Roman poet, stands proudly. Ovid (43 BC - AD 17/18) was an influential figure in Latin literature, best known for his works "Metamorphoses" and "Amores." The statue, erected in 1902, was a tribute to the city's rich cultural heritage. The bustling port of Constanta, one of Romania's principal maritime gateways, is a melting pot of history, culture, and commerce. The photo offers a glimpse into the past, with the yacht and the statue serving as timeless symbols of Romania's royal past and literary legacy. The calm waters of the Black Sea reflect the serene atmosphere, creating a captivating scene that transports us back in time.
