1. Title: "Monaco, France - French Riviera: A Timeless Coastal Scene from the Early 1900s" This evocative photograph captures the enchanting beauty of Monaco, France, on the French Riviera during the early 1900s. The image, taken circa 1901 by the skilled lens of Manuel Wielandt, invites us to step back in time and experience the allure of this iconic coastal destination. The photograph showcases the picturesque Monaco harbor, with its bustling activity and elegant yachts, nestled between the rocky cliffs and the shimmering Mediterranean Sea. The Principality of Monaco, a sovereign city-state renowned for its glamour and sophistication, is seen in its early stages of development. In the foreground, the island of Monaco and its peninsula are connected by a narrow land bridge, creating a natural harbor that has long been a strategic and commercial hub. The tranquil waters of the bay are dotted with small boats, while the distant horizon reveals the expansive sea and the promise of adventure. The coastal scene is further enhanced by the lush greenery of the surrounding hillsides, which provide a striking contrast to the crystal-clear waters and the sun-kissed shoreline. The elegant architecture of Monaco's buildings, with their red-tiled roofs and wrought-iron balconies, add to the charm and character of this timeless image. This photograph, a precious relic from the Mar18 collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a captivating glimpse into the history and allure of Monaco and the French Riviera during the Belle Époque. It is a testament to the enduring beauty and appeal of this iconic coastal destination, which continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world.
