Alicante, Notes on Spain
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an evocative photograph taken in the 1870s, capturing the picturesque harbor city of Alicante in Valencia, Spain. The image, from Henry Walter Bates' "Illustrated Travels" published by Cassell, Petter, and Galpin in London around 1880, showcases a bustling harbor filled with boats of various sizes, from small sailboats to larger vessels. In the distance, the imposing Santa Barbara Castle stands proudly atop a hill, its fortifications a testament to the city's rich history. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when travel was an adventurous endeavor. The boats in the harbor suggest a thriving maritime community, with sailors going about their daily business. The castle, a popular tourist attraction even then, adds a sense of grandeur and intrigue to the scene. Bates, a British travel writer, likely captured this image during his travels through Spain, documenting the country's diverse landscapes and cultures for his readers back home. The photograph is a beautiful example of 19th-century photography, with its sharp contrasts and intricate details. The image invites us to explore the city of Alicante, to imagine the sights, sounds, and smells of this vibrant Spanish port city. It is a reminder of the power of photography to transport us to different places and times, and to inspire our sense of wonder and curiosity about the world around us. The photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of historical travel images, offering a unique perspective on Spain during the 1870s. Its mysterious origins only add to its allure, making it a fascinating piece of history to behold.
