EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Universal Images Group (UIG) transports us back to the year 1914, offering a glimpse into the bustling Port of Santi Quaranta. The panoramic view captures a picturesque coastal scene, with the sparkling sea stretching out towards the horizon. A road winds its way through the landscape, leading towards a group of buildings that stand proudly against the backdrop of this historic port. Intriguingly, only men can be seen in this snapshot of history. They are scattered along the road and waterfront, their gazes turned away as if lost in deep contemplation or perhaps engrossed in conversation about matters unknown to us. This image offers an intriguing insight into French culture during this era. The grayscale tones add a sense of timelessness to this photograph, further enhancing its historical significance. It is impossible not to wonder what stories lie behind these men's expressions and what role they played in shaping both local and global events during such tumultuous times. As we admire this remarkable piece of transportation history captured on film over a century ago, it serves as a reminder that even amidst world-changing events like World War I, life continued at ports like Santi Quaranta - where trade flourished and people went about their daily lives under skies much like those we see today when visiting modern-day harbors around the world.
