Two more “Saluti da Livorno” (Greetings from Livorno) postcards, published by the same Künzli Frères in Zurich around 1900.
The
Darsena Vecchia, the
Cisternone, and the area of the Porto Mediceo where is now the
Coast Guard building.
In another postcard we have a view of
Piazza della Repubblica (then Piazza Carlo Alberto), the
Mercato Centrale, and the
monument to Vittorio Emanuele II.
(Postcards digitized from the collection of Antonio Cantelli)

These are lovely, VP.
Nice artwork.
Those soft colors are so gentle on the eye.
J'adore these beautifully hand painted postcards VP.
This is beautiful ART!
One thing I used to buy in "the old days" when visiting Italy,was Italian made writing papers, envelopes and cards. ( I think some from Amalfi )
These days it is not often I write or get handwritten letters. But I have some old family letters that I treasure.
Look forward to Sundays here with you.
These are such wonderful images!
I love them, they were chosen and sent, they were cherished (hopefully)... And they give a lovely insight into the early XXth century life!
Beautifully old fashioned!
These postcards are works of art. Thanks for showing them.
beautiful old cards :)
Amazing how much the styles have changed since then.
I love these old postcards !
