1. Title: "Vigo Harbour, Spain - A Blend of Tradition and Modernity in the 1910s". This evocative photograph captures the enchanting scene of Vigo Harbour in Spain during the 1910s. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the rich maritime history of this beautiful Spanish port city. The photograph showcases the natural harbour, with its protective breakwater and the calm, tranquil waters reflecting the clear blue sky. The traditional fishing boats, known as "xabas," are docked alongside more modern vessels, symbolizing the harmonious coexistence of tradition and progress. The quay is bustling with activity, as fishermen unload their catch and locals go about their daily business. In the background, the city of Vigo can be seen, with its colourful houses, churches, and narrow streets. The hilltop Castro Fortress, a testament to the region's history, stands proudly overlooking the harbour. The photograph also reveals the vibrant atmosphere of Vigo Harbour, with its lively marketplace and the sound of laughter and conversation filling the air. The people of Vigo have always been deeply connected to the sea, and this image encapsulates the essence of their way of life. This photograph from the 1910s is a reminder of the enduring charm and beauty of Vigo Harbour and the rich cultural heritage it represents. It invites us to imagine the stories and memories that have unfolded on its shores over the centuries.
