EDITORS COMMENTS
A serene scene from the early 1900s, captured on the banks of Italy's largest lake, Lake Garda or Lago di Garda, in the charming town of Riva. This enchanting photograph showcases a collection of commercial sailing craft, gracefully moored at the quay side. The picturesque harbor, nestled between the towering Alps and the shores of Lombardy and Trentino, has long been a hub for maritime activity. In the foreground, a barge, laden with freshly cut timber, adds a sense of industry to the tranquil setting. The clock tower in the background, a distinctive feature of Riva's skyline, stands tall and proud, casting a long shadow over the quay. The intricate details of the boats, from their rigging to their ornate designs, reveal the skill and craftsmanship of the local shipbuilders. The calm waters of Lake Garda reflect the clear blue sky, creating a mirror-like effect that adds to the peaceful ambiance. The quay, bustling with activity, is filled with a variety of boats and ships, each with their unique character and purpose. The gentle lapping of the water against the quay and the sound of the clock tower chiming in the distance transport us back in time, offering a glimpse into the rich maritime history of this beautiful region.
