EDITORS COMMENTS
A Blissful Retreat: The Tannery at Monte Carlo Beach, 1932 Amidst the azure waters of the French Riviera, Monte Carlo Beach, with its iconic nickname 'The Tannery,' beckoned sun-worshippers during the golden age of leisure and holidaymaking in the 1930s. This image from 1932, an artists' impression, invites us to step back in time and immerse ourselves in the idyllic scene of sunbathers reveling in the Mediterranean sun. The Tannery, a moniker inspired by the deep bronze hues achieved through sunbathing, was a place of relaxation and rejuvenation. The image showcases the stunning Pompeian bathing pool, a cool oasis for those seeking respite from the sun's warm embrace. For those less energetic, the shady arcades nearby offered a tranquil retreat, perfect for reading a book or enjoying a leisurely conversation. In the background, the majestic La Turbie Rock towers over the town, sheltering the picturesque bay. Its imposing presence adds an element of grandeur to the already breathtaking landscape. The sumptuous restaurant and bar, with its inviting terrace, beckons visitors to indulge in a refreshing drink or a delicious meal, further enhancing the allure of this idyllic retreat. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a bygone era, where the simple pleasures of sun, sea, and sand reigned supreme.
