Captured around 1870-1880, this mesmerizing scene showcases both the breathtaking landscape of lakes and the bustling activity that surrounded them during that era. The boatman's presence not only adds a human touch but also hints at a vibrant work and vocation tied to these waters. As our eyes wander across this panoramic view of Isola Bella, it becomes evident that transportation by water was an essential part of life back then.
