EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the early 1910s, showcases the historical steam ferry 'Leman' gracefully navigating the tranquil waters of Lac Leman, also known as Lake Geneva, in Geneva, Switzerland. The serene scene is a testament to the rich maritime history of this picturesque European locale. The steam-powered ferryboat, adorned with intricate figureheads and ornate decorations, epitomizes the elegance and engineering prowess of the era. The Leman, with its distinctive red and white striped funnel and Swiss flag proudly displayed, cuts through the water, leaving a gentle wake behind. Quai du Mont-Blanc and Quai des Paquis, two iconic Geneva waterfront promenades, can be seen in the background, offering a glimpse into the bustling activity of the city. The snow-capped peaks of the Alps, a breathtaking backdrop, add to the enchanting beauty of the moment. The Leman steam ferry, with its impressive size and stately presence, once played a vital role in connecting the communities along the shores of Lac Leman. This photograph is not only a visual delight but also a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the history and culture of Geneva during the early 20th century.
