EDITORS COMMENTS
This postcard image, titled 'Alameda Grand Parade, Gibraltar,' transports us back in time to the early 1900s. The photograph, taken from an aerial perspective, showcases the picturesque coastal town of Gibraltar in all its grandeur. The Alameda Gardens, a popular promenade, are at the heart of the scene, with their lush greenery cascading down the hillside towards the bustling harbor below. The parade, which appears to be a military procession, winds its way through the gardens, adding a sense of excitement and celebration to the scene. Soldiers, dressed in their finest uniforms, march proudly, while spectators line the streets, eager to catch a glimpse of the passing troops. In the background, the clear blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea meet the rugged coastline, creating a stunning contrast between land and water. The towering cliffs of Gibraltar, with their distinctive 'Moonface' profile, loom in the distance, adding to the breathtaking beauty of the scene. The image also reveals the diverse architectural styles present in Gibraltar at the time, with traditional Spanish-style buildings nestled amongst more modern structures. The Cumbo area, located in the foreground, is particularly noteworthy for its unique Moorish architecture, which can be seen in the intricate details of the buildings' facades. This postcard offers a glimpse into the rich history and culture of Gibraltar during the 1900s, making it a valuable addition to any collection of historical photographs.
