EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this postcard image of Amsterdam's bustling harbor in the 1910s. The Port of Amsterdam, affectionately known as "The Dutch Capital," is a hive of activity in this photograph. Tugs, those stalwart maritime heroes, are stationed at the quayside, ready to assist incoming ships with their powerful ropes and expert maneuvering. The ships, with their sails billowing in the wind, glide gracefully towards the quay, bringing with them goods from far-off lands. But Amsterdam's charm is not just about industry and commerce. Notice the quaint Dutch houses and bicycles scattered throughout the scene. Bicycles, a quintessential part of Dutch culture, are a common sight in Amsterdam even today. The pilot, standing on the deck of one of the ships, is an intriguing figure. His role was crucial in guiding the ships safely through the intricate waterways of Amsterdam's harbor. This postcard, part of The Roseries Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, is a testament to the rich maritime history of Amsterdam in the early 20th century. It's a perfect reminder of a time when the Port of Amsterdam was a vital link in the global trade network, and a symbol of the Dutch spirit of innovation and resilience.
