Anglais Colonies Jetee Nice Palm Promenade Pulled Quay Quay Side
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the picturesque United States Quay in Nice, France, circa 1910s. The Quay, also known as the Jetée des Anglais, is a iconic promenade along the Baie des Anges, with the clear blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea stretching out in the background. Fishing boats, pulled up onto the quay side, create a striking contrast against the dry, sun-kissed palm trees and the ornate, wrought-iron railings. The boats, with their colorful sails and nets, add a rustic charm to the otherwise elegant and refined promenade. The United States Quay was a popular destination for American tourists during this era, and the presence of the American flag on some of the buildings along the promenade is a testament to the strong cultural ties between the two nations. The grand Hotel Regina Palace, seen in the background, was a luxurious establishment that attracted wealthy travelers from around the world. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of leisurely strolls along the promenade, the gentle sound of waves lapping against the shore, and the vibrant energy of a bustling port. The image is a beautiful reminder of the rich history and cultural exchange that has shaped the city of Nice and its relationship with the United States.
