EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "PDC-S-003691-0009" takes us back in time to the late 19th or early 20th century. The image beautifully captures a picturesque pier situated on the stunning coast of Madeira Island. The pier stands as a testament to the importance of naval and river transportation during this era. Its sturdy structure and remarkable architecture showcase the ingenuity of those who built it, allowing for seamless connections between land and sea. As we gaze at this mesmerizing scene, our eyes are drawn towards the vast expanse of the sea stretching out before us. The tranquil seascape perfectly complements the surrounding landscape, creating a harmonious blend of nature's beauty with man-made structures. A small boat can be seen docked near the pier, serving as a reminder that water was not only a means of transportation but also an integral part of everyday life for coastal communities. It symbolizes both adventure and livelihoods dependent on maritime activities. The composition skillfully captures both stillness and movement - from the calm waters reflecting sunlight to gentle waves lapping against wooden pilings. This method of transportation by water is elegantly portrayed through this timeless photograph. Although we may never know who precisely captured this breathtaking moment in history, its preservation by Alinari allows us to appreciate their artistic eye and dedication to documenting significant moments in time. Let yourself be transported back in time as you immerse yourself into this extraordinary snapshot from Madeira Island's past – where land meets sea, where architecture meets nature, and where human endeavor intertwines with natural wonders.
