Atlantic Madeira Portugal Portuguese Slides Cama
EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lantern slide depicts a scenic view of Cama de Lobas, a picturesque village nestled in the heart of Madeira Island, Portugal. Established in the late 19th century, Cama de Lobas was renowned for its stunning natural beauty and unique volcanic landscapes. The name of the village translates to 'Bed of Wolves,' a reference to the volcanic formations that resemble the backs of sleeping wolves. Madeira, an autonomous region of Portugal, is located in the Atlantic Ocean and is famous for its lush greenery, stunning cliffs, and vibrant culture. This photograph, taken during a visit to the island in the 1890s, captures the essence of the region's allure, with its rolling hills, winding roads, and quaint stone houses. The lantern slide, part of the Boswell collection, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when travel was an adventure, and the world was full of discovery. The late 19th century was a period of great exploration, and Madeira, with its unique natural wonders, was a popular destination for intrepid travelers. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of Madeira and the enduring appeal of its natural beauty. It invites us to imagine the stories of the people who once lived in Cama de Lobas, and the experiences of the travelers who came to explore this enchanting island in the Atlantic.
