And so we come to the
end of our album! No web page reproduction can do justice to the wonderful
detail in these photographs. Still, we hope we've been able to give you more
than just a sense of the album, and of the Riga it portrays.
Since it ends with
the Sailors' Home, it could be this was meant as a keepsake for sailors to
take or send home to their families. Certainly, Riga was a bustling port with
ships and sailors from around the world!
We would certainly
appreciate your comments and if you'd be interested in seeing more such
glimpses of the past. |
