EDITORS COMMENTS
The Castelli di Cannero: Three Timeless Islets of Lake Maggiore, Italy (1898) Nestled in the tranquil waters of Lake Maggiore in northern Italy, the Castelli di Cannero, or the 'Rocky Islets of Cannero,' present a captivating sight that has enchanted visitors for generations. These three small, rocky islets, located off the picturesque shoreline of Cannero Riviera, administratively form part of the Comune of Cannobio, adding to the rich cultural heritage of the region. The Castelli di Cannero, a favorite subject for artists and photographers, have remained largely unchanged since this photograph was taken in 1898. The image, captured by the skilled lens of Manuel Wielandt, showcases the islets' rugged beauty, with their towering cliffs and intriguing shapes rising majestically from the lake's crystal-clear waters. A small boat, covered in a gentle layer of morning mist, adds a sense of serenity to the scene, mirroring the calm and peaceful atmosphere that surrounds the Castelli di Cannero. The Italian Alps in the background, their snow-capped peaks reaching for the sky, serve as a breathtaking backdrop to this idyllic tableau. The Castelli di Cannero, with their unique charm and timeless allure, continue to captivate the hearts and minds of those who visit Lake Maggiore, offering a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the enduring beauty of nature.
