EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this view of Perasto Island, located in the Dalmatian region of Croatia during the late 19th century. This picturesque scene, captured between approximately 1890 and 1900, showcases the island's rich history under Austro-Hungarian rule. Perasto, with its charming architecture and idyllic setting, is a true gem of the Adriatic Sea. The island's quaint houses, adorned with colorful shutters and red-tiled roofs, are nestled among lush greenery and dotted with narrow, winding streets. The crystal-clear waters surrounding the island reflect the vibrant hues of the buildings, creating a scene that is both nostalgic and historically significant. This coloured photograph, produced using the photochrom process, adds an extra layer of allure to the image. The process, popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, involved hand-colouring photographs using a series of pigments. The result is a rich, detailed image that transports us back to a time when life moved at a slower pace. Perasto's beauty and charm have endured through the centuries, making it a must-visit destination for those seeking a taste of Croatia's rich history and stunning natural beauty. This photograph serves as a reminder of the island's past, and a testament to its enduring allure.
