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.
