EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming postcard, sent from Thessaloniki, Greece around 1916, showcases the vibrant and historic cityscape of this Greek gem. The image captures a variety of sights, each holding a piece of the city's rich history. In the foreground, a cluster of four-leaf clovers adds a touch of luck and good fortune to the scene. The inset image displays an elegant white arch, possibly part of the Rotunda of Galerius, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a testament to the city's Roman past. The towering white tower in the background is the iconic Tower of the Winds, a monumental clock tower that has stood proudly since the late 15th century. The tower, located in the heart of the city, is a popular tourist attraction and a symbol of Thessaloniki's resilience and enduring charm. The card's bottom left corner features an image of Rue Venizelos, a bustling street named after Eleftherios Venizelos, a prominent Greek statesman and the city's former mayor. The image of Place de la Liberté (Liberty Square) in the bottom right corner completes the scene, showcasing the city's lively atmosphere and the beautiful architecture that surrounds it. Thessaloniki, also known as Salonica or Salonika, is Greece's second-largest city and a melting pot of cultures, history, and traditions. This postcard is a snapshot of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the city's rich history and the beauty that continues to draw visitors from around the world.
