The Grand Canal and Sant'Antonio Nuovo Church

This historic postcard offers a striking perspective view of the Grand Canal (Canal Grande) in Trieste, crowded with traditional sailing boats moored along the quays. In the background, the majestic neoclassical façade of the Church of Sant'Antonio Nuovo dominates the scene with its iconic colonnade. To the right, glimpses of the domes of the Serbian Orthodox Church of San Spiridon are visible. The image captures the maritime and commercial soul of the city in a bygone era.
