Postcard: Piazza Ponterosso early 1900s

Historical postcard of Piazza Ponterosso in Trieste at the beginning of the 1900s: the square overlooks the canal, with the masts of sailing ships towering among the buildings. In the foreground an elegant kiosk and wooden stalls; carts and passers-by animate the scene. Masts, ropes and 19th-century facades provide a vivid urban view of the era.
