EDITORS COMMENTS
This image transports us back in time to the bustling Port Practique in Odessa, Russia, around the turn of the 20th century. The Port Practique, located in the southern part of the city, was a vital hub for maritime trade and transportation during the 19th century. This nostalgic view showcases the colorful and picturesque scene that once unfolded along the waterfront. The photograph, dating between approximately 1890 and 1900, is a testament to the rich history of Odessa and its connection to the wider world. The image is rendered in a photochrom process, a popular method for producing colored photographs during this era. The result is a vibrant and detailed depiction of the port, with its intricately designed buildings, sprawling dockyards, and an array of ships anchored in the harbor. The bustling activity at the port is evident in the image, with people going about their daily tasks and merchants conducting business deals. The scene is filled with a sense of energy and excitement, as the exchange of goods and ideas took place between various cultures and nations. As we gaze at this nostalgic image, we are reminded of the importance of Odessa as a key port city during the 19th century and the role it played in shaping the history of Russia and Ukraine. The Port Practique stands as a symbol of the city's rich maritime heritage and its enduring connection to the world.
