1. Title: A Blissful Day at the Beach in Nice, France (circa 1920) 2. Description: This postcard image, hailing from the enchanting city of Nice in France, transports us back in time to the early 1920s. The coastal scene is a picture-perfect representation of the carefree and idyllic atmosphere that once defined the seaside retreat. 3. Scene: The sandy beach, dotted with sunbathers, stretches out before us, leading to the crystal-clear waters of the Mediterranean Sea. A pram, abandoned on the sand, suggests that families with young children were a common sight on the beach during this era. 4. Bathing and Swimming: In the foreground, a woman in a fashionable bathing costume is seen sunbathing on a beach towel, her hat shielding her from the sun. Nearby, a man in swimming trunks wades into the sea, while a group of swimmers can be seen in the distance, their strokes rhythmically cutting through the water. 5. Coastal Town: The charming coastal town of Nice is visible in the background, its pastel-colored buildings and winding streets adding to the postcard-perfect scene. The town's iconic palm trees, which line the promenade, can be seen swaying gently in the breeze. 6. Sun and Seaside: The sun, a golden orb in the clear blue sky, casts a warm glow over the scene, highlighting the joy and relaxation that can be found at the beach. This timeless image invites us to imagine the simple pleasures of a day spent at the seaside, a tradition that continues to captivate and inspire us today. 7. Costume and Fashion: The bathing costumes of the era, with their high waistlines and long sleeves, are a striking contrast to the more revealing designs that would later become popular. This postcard offers a fascinating glimpse into the fashion trends of the time, as well as the enduring appeal of the beach as a place of relaxation and rejuvenation.
