EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1900, transports us back in time to the picturesque shores of Lake Como in Italy. The image, part of the Boswell Collection, showcases the quaint town of Colico, with its charming café restaurant nestled along the water's edge. A coach and horses, known as a diligence, are parked outside the establishment, waiting to whisk travelers away on their next adventure. The horses, harnessed and ready, seem to be taking a brief respite from their duties, their breath visible in the crisp, cool air. The coach, adorned with intricate details and ornate designs, is a testament to the craftsmanship of the era. The café, with its inviting awning and warm lantern light spilling out onto the cobblestone streets, beckons to weary travelers seeking a moment of rest and refreshment. The reflection of the scene in the calm waters of the lake adds an extra layer of serenity to the image, making it a truly enchanting sight. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when travel was a more leisurely affair, and the simple pleasures of life were savored. The Italian Lakes region, with its stunning beauty and rich history, continues to be a popular destination for travelers seeking a taste of the old world charm that can be found in this image.
