1. Title: A Colorful Tableau of Maritime Life: Variety of Boats in a Greek Harbour (1978) 2. Description: This evocative black-and-white photograph captures the vibrant scene of a bustling Greek harbour in 1978. The image is filled with an array of boats, each with its unique character and charm. From traditional wooden fishing boats with colorful sails to modern motor yachts, they create a stunning visual tapestry against the backdrop of the clear blue waters. 3. Context: The photograph transports us back to the 1970s, a time when life moved at a slower pace, and the simple pleasures of the sea were cherished. The small Greek harbour is bustling with activity, with locals and tourists alike coming together to enjoy the sun, the sea, and the camaraderie that comes with being part of a maritime community. 4. Details: The boats are docked closely together, their hulls reflecting the sunlight as they bob gently in the water. The railings of some boats are adorned with small flags, adding a splash of color to the scene. The photograph also captures the essence of the harbour's surroundings - the quaint houses with red-tiled roofs, the narrow cobblestone streets, and the bustling markets. 5. Emotion: This photograph evokes a sense of nostalgia and longing for simpler times. It invites us to imagine the stories of the people who have come before us and those who continue to make their living from the sea. The image is a testament to the enduring allure of the sea and the communities that have thrived around it for generations. 6. Technical: This photograph, taken in 1978, is a black-and-white print. The image size is not specified, but it is likely to be a medium format or large format photograph due to the high level of detail and sharpness. The photograph is available as a rights-managed print from Mary Evans Prints Online.
