EDITORS COMMENTS
A captivating glimpse into the past, this photograph transports us to the French Riviera's glamorous Cote d'Azur, specifically to the Principality of Monaco and its iconic landmark, The Rock of Monaco or Rocher de Monaco. Dating back to the 1920s, this image showcases the monolithic rock's imposing 62-meter height that juts dramatically out of the crystal-clear Mediterranean waters. The Rock of Monaco, a natural fortress, has served as the historical residence of the Grimaldi family, the ruling Princes of Monaco, since the 13th century. The Rock's strategic location has made it a coveted territory throughout history, and today it is a symbol of Monaco's rich heritage and opulence. The panoramic view from the Rock offers a breathtaking vista of the azure waters, the bustling harbor, and the glittering casinos that have made Monaco an international playground for the rich and famous. As we gaze at this photograph, we are transported back in time to the Roaring Twenties, an era of decadence, glamour, and sophistication. The Rock of Monaco, with its timeless allure, continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world, making it an enduring symbol of the French Riviera's charm and elegance.
