Amerigo Vespucci

The school ship Amerigo Vespucci in the port of Cagliari. Built in 1930 it is considered the most beautiful ship in the world. The night lighting shows the colors of the Italian flag. Nikon D500, Tamron 70-200, f2.8, 6sec, ISO160. Thanks for your comments

Indeed, a magnificient training ship. She aslo carried the Olympic torch for the 1960 Rome Olympic games from Piraeus to Syracuse . Best,- Sandor

Grazie Sandor per il bel commento e per la interessante nota che hai aggiunto

From this image, Giangiorgio, I can determine with no doubt whatsoever why this amazing vessel is referred to as "the most beautiful ship in the world." The image presents the ship quite boldly, which is entirely fitting: its three tall masts reaching toward the sky, the intricate web of rigging, and the rugged construction of its four (perhaps more?) decks and its bowsprit. Finally, the colored lights shining on the ship presents visitors with a visual treat, analogous to your presenting one to us, your viewers. Definite favorite! - - My best always, michael - -Ciao!
