EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling activity at the Luchana estuary in Bilbao, Spain, circa 1902. The River Nervion, a major waterway that flows into the Atlantic Ocean, is shown teeming with ships of various sizes, from small fishing boats to large steamers and steamships. The industrial city of Bilbao, located in the north of Spain, is known for its rich maritime history and thriving port. The image reveals the importance of water transportation in the region during the early 1900s. The hills in the background, dotted with houses and factories, serve as a stark contrast to the tranquil waters below. The ships, with their billowing smoke stacks, add a sense of energy and dynamism to the scene. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the vital role that water transportation played in the economic and social fabric of Bilbao. The image is a testament to the city's maritime heritage and its enduring connection to the sea. The photograph, with its timeless quality, invites us to reflect on the past and appreciate the beauty and history of this unique and vibrant city by the river.
