EDITORS COMMENTS
The Graslei: A Timeless Glimpse into Ghent's Rich History The Graslei, located on the right bank of the River Lys in the heart of Ghent, Belgium, is a captivating testament to the city's rich history. This evocative photograph, taken in the 1910s, showcases the quay in all its splendor, adorned with lush grass and herbs growing along the water's edge. The Graslei was once an essential hub for the transportation of goods, with boats and barges docking at the quay to unload their cargos. The architectural wonders of Ghent's medieval past are on full display in this image. The intricately designed facades of the buildings along the quay, with their gabled roofs, ornate brickwork, and oriel windows, are a feast for the eyes. The graceful arches of the stone bridge, connecting the quay to the left bank, add to the scene's ethereal beauty. The grass and herbs growing along the quay not only add a touch of natural charm to the photograph but also serve as a reminder of the area's past agricultural connections. The River Lys, which flows gently through the city, has long been a source of life and sustenance for the people of Ghent. This photograph, from The Roseries Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into a bygone era, inviting us to imagine the hustle and bustle of activity that once took place along the Graslei. It is a poignant reminder of the enduring allure of Ghent's historic waterfront and the city's deep connection to its past.
