EDITORS COMMENTS
Tour of the Colonies: Gibraltar Arrival - A Stunning Sight of Ships Arriving in Gibraltar, Circa 1900 Gibraltar, a British Overseas Territory, is located on the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula at the entrance of the Mediterranean Sea. With an area of just 6.7 km2 (2.6 sq mi), this strategically important region shares its northern border with the Province of Cádiz in Andalusia, Spain. The iconic Rock of Gibraltar, a major landmark, stands tall at its foot, where a densely populated city area thrives, home to nearly 30,000 Gibraltarians and other nationalities. In this photograph from the Boswell collection, we witness a breathtaking arrival of ships to Gibraltar, circa 1900. The image is filled with a vibrant display of flags flying high, as the ships make their way through the harbor, surrounded by other vessels. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich maritime history of Gibraltar and the bustling activity that once defined its shores. The Rock of Gibraltar has been a symbol of British sovereignty since 1713, and its strategic location at the entrance of the Mediterranean made it a vital trading post and military stronghold. This photograph captures the essence of Gibraltar's past, showcasing the beauty and importance of its maritime heritage.
