A Fisherman on the Rovinj Quay with the Historic Village and St. Euphemia Bell Tower in the Background

The photograph captures a moment of daily life in Rovinj: a solitary fisherman on the harbor quay, with his fishing rod facing the sea. In the background, the unmistakable profile of the historic village with colorful houses climbing towards the hill dominated by the bell tower of St. Euphemia Church. The scene tells the maritime vocation of this city, which for centuries lived on fishing and sea trade. The pastel-colored houses, maritime pines on the hill and veiled sky create an atmosphere of Mediterranean tranquility. Rovinj still maintains today a small fishing fleet that supplies local restaurants with fresh fish.
