EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lantern slide depicts a breathtaking view of Calheta, a historic municipality located on the southwest coast of Madeira Island in the Atlantic Ocean. Established in 1430, Calheta is home to one of the oldest parishes on the island and was among the first areas to be explored by early settlers. The image captures the picturesque scenery of the South Coast, with its rugged cliffs, crystal-clear waters, and quaint houses nestled among the lush greenery. The tranquility and serenity of the scene are further accentuated by the soft, monochromatic tones of the lantern slide, transporting us back in time to the late 1890s. Calheta's rich history and natural beauty continue to attract visitors from around the world, making it a must-see destination for anyone traveling to Madeira.
