EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this enchanting photograph of Pola's Germine Gate, also known as Porta Gemina, in the late 19th century. Located in the historic heart of Istria, a region in present-day Croatia, this magnificent gateway was a significant landmark during the Austro-Hungarian era. The vibrant colors of this picture, reminiscent of a painting, transport us to a nostalgic era filled with history and charm. The intricate details of the gate's stonework, the lush greenery surrounding it, and the horse-drawn carriages passing through, all add to the picturesque scene. The Germine Gate, built in the late 18th century, was one of the main entrances to the old town of Pola. It was named after the Germania symbol, which adorned the top of the gate, representing the Roman goddess of the Germanic peoples. This gate served as a testament to the rich history of the region, which was ruled by various empires throughout the centuries, including the Romans, Byzantines, Venetians, and Austro-Hungarians. This coloured photograph, likely taken between 1890 and 1900, is a beautiful example of the Photochrom process, which was popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The process involved hand-coloring photographs using a series of pigments, resulting in stunning, lifelike images. This photograph is a valuable historical document, offering a glimpse into the past and providing us with a deeper appreciation for the history and culture of Istria during the Austro-Hungarian period.
