EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the tranquil waters of Lake Garda, the largest lake in Italy, a two-masted sailing barge, or barque, gracefully rests at the quay side in the charming town of Riva. The serene silhouette of the Italian Alps in the background adds to the picturesque scenery, as the barge prepares to receive a cargo of sacks of grain. The lake, also known as Lago di Garda or Benaco, has long been an essential commercial hub, with its strategic location connecting the Mediterranean Sea to Central Europe. This image, taken circa 1910s, showcases the harmony between the natural beauty of the Italian landscape and the industriousness of the commercial craft that once thrived along its shores. The composition of the photograph, with the masted outline of the barque contrasting against the quay and the mountains, is a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of this magnificent body of water.
