EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this vintage photograph of bathers enjoying a sunny day at the swimming basin pool in Antwerp, Anvers, Belgium. Dating back to the late 19th century, this image transports us to an era of grandeur and tradition. The architectural beauty of the pool's structure, with its intricate design and ornate details, stands as a testament to the engineering feats of the time. The scene is set against the backdrop of a bustling urban landscape, with the towering buildings and historic structures of Antwerp's cityscape visible in the distance. The pool, located near the river or perhaps a lake, offers a refreshing escape from the heat of the summer sun. The bathers, dressed in their Victorian-era swimsuits, engage in a lively game of balloon volleyball, adding a playful touch to the serene setting. The clear blue water of the pool reflects the vibrant colors of the surrounding scenery, including the bright red and white stripes of the poolside umbrellas and the lush greenery of the nearby trees. The clear, sunny sky completes the idyllic picture, making this image a true treasure for anyone interested in the history and culture of Antwerp and the early days of swimming pools and water sports. This photograph is an archival gem, capturing a moment in time that invites us to reflect on the past and the evolution of recreational activities. Whether you're a history buff, a lover of architecture, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of a sunny day by the water, this image is sure to inspire and delight.
