EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of the Belle Époque era at Dinard, France, on the stunning Emerald Coast. Circa 1908, the serene quayside at Dinard comes alive with the presence of Les Vedettes, a collection of powered lake crafts gracefully moored along the waterfront. The paddlesteamers and steamers, with their elegant designs and vibrant colors, exude an air of sophistication and leisure. The quaint town of Dinard, nestled along the Côte de Granit Rose, is a popular seaside destination for the French and international elite. The lake, known as Lac de Dinard, is a natural harbor that offers a picturesque backdrop for these motorized boats. The quay, adorned with ornate railings and colorful flowers, adds to the charm of the scene. In the background, the grand Hotel Bellevue can be seen, a symbol of luxury and opulence. The hotel, with its impressive facade and manicured gardens, was a favorite among the wealthy and famous. The lake crafts, with their powerful engines, provided a thrilling means of transportation and entertainment for the guests. The emerald waters of the lake reflect the clear blue sky, creating a breathtaking contrast. The gentle lapping of the waves against the shore, the sound of laughter and conversation, and the sight of the sun setting over the horizon, all combine to create a moment of pure tranquility and joy. This photograph is a testament to the timeless beauty and allure of Dinard and the French Riviera during the early 20th century.
