EDITORS COMMENTS
This lantern slide image transports us back in time to the picturesque Custom House of Madeira Island, located in the Atlantic Ocean off the northwest coast of Africa and a Portuguese territory since the 15th century. The Custom House, a significant historical landmark, served as the primary hub for the collection of taxes and duties on goods imported and exported from the island. Madeira, renowned for its subtropical climate and lush greenery, was a popular destination for European travelers during the late 1800s. The Custom House, with its grand architecture and imposing presence, stands as a testament to the island's rich history and its economic importance during that era. The Custom House, adorned with intricate details and ornate decorations, is a visual feast for the eyes. The red-tiled roof, tall arched windows, and the distinctive lantern atop the building are all reminiscent of the Portuguese architectural style prevalent during the 1800s. The surrounding landscape, with its verdant hills and the blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean, adds to the serene beauty of the scene. This lantern slide, captured in the 1890s, offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a valuable record of the historical significance of the Custom House in Madeira's history. The image invites us to explore the island's rich cultural heritage and the fascinating stories that unfolded within its shores.
