EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the 1950s or 1960s, we are transported back in time to the picturesque city of Bruges in Belgium. The image captures a group of people on a motorboat, gracefully sailing along one of the canals that wind through this historic city. The architectural beauty of Bruges is evident in the background, with its charming buildings adorned with decorative elements and sections. Through an open window, we catch a glimpse of the intricate structure within. This canal, serving as both transportation and hydraulic system for the city, adds to its natural allure. The primary element that dominates this scene is water - calm and reflective. It creates a serene backdrop against which these individuals are enjoying their leisurely boat ride. Their fashion choices reflect daytime attire for work; men don uniforms complete with hats – perhaps indicating they belong to some professional group. As our eyes wander across the photo print, we notice how vegetation plays a role in enhancing this idyllic setting. Branches hang over from nearby trees creating natural frames around our subjects as they revel in their trip down the canal. This snapshot encapsulates not only transportation by water but also offers us insight into tourism during that era. The motorboat becomes an object of fascination amidst such tranquil surroundings. Alinari's attention to detail allows us to immerse ourselves fully into this moment frozen in time - where architecture meets nature and people find solace on peaceful waters under clear skies.
