EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of the Sailors Training Station in Potsdam, Berlin, Germany, dating from the late 19th century. The image, richly colored and evocative of a bygone era, offers a picturesque and nostalgic glimpse into the past. Located on the shores of the picturesque Wannsee Lake, the Sailors Training Station was an essential institution for the Prussian Navy. Established in the mid-19th century, the station provided young sailors with the necessary skills and training to serve on naval vessels. The photograph captures the daily life of these trainees, as they go about their routines, learning the art of seamanship and navigation. The station's red-roofed buildings, with their tall chimneys and white-washed walls, stand proudly against the backdrop of the lake and its lush, green surroundings. The trainees, dressed in their uniforms, can be seen engaged in various activities, from mending sails and repairing boats to practicing drills and rowing in the water. The photograph, produced using the photocrom process, adds to its historical charm. This method, popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, involved the use of multiple color filters to create detailed and vibrant images. The result is a stunning, coloured representation of a time long past, offering a unique and captivating insight into the history of Potsdam, Berlin, and the Prussian Navy.
