1. Title: "A Traditional Boatman of Menorca: A Moment of Peace Amidst the Idyllic Mediterranean Coastline" 2. Description: This evocative photograph captures the essence of the Balearic Islands, specifically Menorca, Spain, in the late 1980s. The image features a local boatman, dressed in a sun hat, seated comfortably in the stern of a small, open fishing boat known as a llaut. The boat, with its distinctive design and simple elegance, is moored peacefully in the picturesque harbor of Alcaufar. The boatman's weathered face, creased with the lines of time and the elements, exudes a sense of calm and contentment as he gazes out at the shimmering Mediterranean Sea. The idyllic coastal scene is further enhanced by the sun-kissed, cobblestone street in the background, which leads the viewer's eye back to the boat and its solitary occupant. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the rich maritime history and traditions of Menorca and the Balearic Islands. 3.

The image is a testament to the beauty and tranquility of the Mediterranean coastline and the simple pleasures of life that can be found there. The photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of maritime, travel, or historical imagery. 5. Copyright: This photograph is available for licensing through Mary Evans Picture Library.
