This atmospheric photo captures the quiet magic of an evening in Cascais - a picturesque fishing boat named "S. António" lies abandoned on the beach, while behind it the small harbour is bathed in warm light. The reflections of the lanterns dance on the smooth surface of the water, as if the day wanted to flicker one last time before giving itself up completely to the night.
Cascais, once a royal summer residence, is now a popular holiday resort - but this photograph shows a different side: the poetic emptiness after sunset, the slow breathing of the place when the flow of tourists dries up and the sea takes over again. The boat in the foreground symbolises longing, stories of past trips, perhaps even a little melancholy - embedded in soft yellow and blue tones that lend every room a sense of depth and calm.
This picture is particularly suitable for people with a sense of the extraordinary: as a mural for living rooms, galleries or stylish holiday accommodation with a connection to the sea. An eye-catcher that tells stories - quietly, but unforgettably.
