Two Islands near Perast, Montenegro
Two small islands near Perast, Montenegro: one is called St. George Island, and the other called Gospa od krpjela (Our Lady of the Rock), and each of them has a picturesque chapel. Gospa od krpjela is particularly interesting given that it is the only artificially built island in the Adriatic - built upon a rock (krpjel) after two Venetian sailors from Perast found a picture of the Virgin Mary on it in 1452. Date: circa 1930s

Two Small Islands Near Perast, Montenego: A Historical and Picturesque Scene (circa 1930s) This evocative photograph captures the enchanting beauty of two small islands nestled in the crystal-clear waters of the Adriatic Sea, off the coast of Perast, Montenego. The larger island, known as St. George Island (Sveti Đorđe), is home to a charming chapel dedicated to St. George, the patron saint of Montenegro. The smaller island, Gospa od Krpjela (Our Lady of the Rock), is a unique and historically significant destination that has drawn visitors for centuries. Gospa od Krpjela is particularly noteworthy as it is the only artificially built island in the Adriatic Sea. The island's intriguing origin dates back to 1452 when two Venetian sailors from Perast discovered a picture of the Virgin Mary on a rock (krpjel) in the sea. In honor of this miraculous find, the sailors and the people of Perast decided to build a church on the rock, and over the centuries, the island grew as successive generations added to it, creating a sacred and picturesque destination. The chapel on Gospa od Krpjela, dedicated to the Virgin Mary, is a popular pilgrimage site and a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Montenego. The islands' peaceful and serene atmosphere, combined with their stunning natural beauty, make them a must-see destination for anyone visiting this breathtaking region of the Adriatic Coast. This photograph, taken in the 1930s, captures the timeless allure of these islands and the enduring connection between the people of Montenego and their faith and history.
