EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph, taken in the 1930s, captures the timeless beauty of Nice, France, with its iconic landmarks of Les Ponchettes, Le Chateau, and Mont Boron. The image showcases the picturesque waterfront area of Les Ponchettes, which was once home to a row of small houses of local fishermen. Nowadays, these quaint structures have been mostly replaced by galleries and shops, inviting visitors to explore their treasures. In the background, the elegant Chateau de Nice, with its distinctive orange rooftops, stands proudly against the clear blue sky. This historic castle, built in the 13th century, has served various purposes throughout history, including as a fortress, a royal residence, and a museum. The photograph also highlights the lush palm trees and the pristine sandy beach, which add to the Mediterranean charm of Nice. The calm, turquoise waters of the sea gently lap against the shore, creating a serene atmosphere that has attracted travelers for generations. In the distance, Mont Boron, a green hill with a rich history and breathtaking views, adds a natural element to the scene. The hill, with its winding roads and hidden villas, has long been a popular destination for artists and writers seeking inspiration from its beauty and tranquility. This photograph, from The Roseries Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the past and the enduring allure of Nice, France, with its unique blend of history, culture, and natural beauty.
