EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1945, we are transported back in time to Lisbon, Portugal. The image showcases Gertrude LeGendre, an American tourist with a keen eye for capturing the essence of her surroundings. Standing on the waterfront, she holds a classic camera in her hands, ready to freeze moments in time forever. The harbor is bustling with activity as sailboats gracefully glide through the water. The midday sun casts a beautiful glow on the scene, illuminating both Gertrude and the boats against the backdrop of Lisbon's seashore. Her fashion exudes timeless elegance as she stands confidently amidst this picturesque setting. Toni Frissell skillfully captures this moment of sightseeing and travel during an era when exploring new places was still considered an adventure. Through his lens, he immortalizes not only Gertrude but also the spirit of tourism and vacationing that has transcended generations. This print serves as a window into history—a glimpse into a bygone era where simplicity reigned supreme and discovering new cultures was cherished above all else. It reminds us of our innate desire to explore unknown territories and create lasting memories along the way. Whether you're an avid traveler or simply appreciate vintage aesthetics, this photograph transports you to Lisbon's charming waterfront while igniting your own wanderlust.
