Riva del Mandracchio in the 1920s

Historic photo of the Riva del Mandracchio in Trieste in the 1920s. The stone quay is under maintenance: displaced slabs, workers at work, and small moored boats along the port. Pedestrians in hats and a cart move past the elegant seafront palaces. Smoke from steamships rises in the distance, a sign of bustling maritime activity. An authentic glimpse of everyday life on Trieste’s waterfront.
