EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Albania - Alliance-Santi - Quaranta - General view," offers a panoramic glimpse into the historical port of Sarande, Albania, during the year 1918. The image showcases the picturesque waterfront, with its quaint buildings and lush greenery, nestled between the clear blue waters of the Ionian Sea and the rugged mountains in the background. The foreground of the photograph draws particular attention to a military launch, reminiscent of the gunboats used during the World War I era. The launch, with its imposing presence, adds a sense of historical significance to the scene. The Albanian flag, proudly flying high above the harbor, symbolizes the country's emerging national identity. Sarande, also known as Santa Quaranta, was a vital port city during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It served as a crucial connection point between Albania and the outside world, facilitating trade and commerce. The image captures the essence of this bustling port town, with its vibrant activity and rich cultural heritage. This photograph is an exquisite testament to the beauty and history of Albania's southern coast. It invites us to explore the stories of the past and appreciate the natural splendor of this enchanting region.
