Photographer's Note

The bay of the Porto Grande in Mindelo, São vicente Island, is the best harbor in Cape Verde. To its eastern side there are modern port facilities. To its western side, nearer to the Mercado de Peixe, there is the so-called Praia d' Bote ("Beach of Small Boats"; this picture) where the traditional fishermen mend their nets and repair and maintain their boats.
The background is Monte Cara ("Mount Face"; a sleeping one, that is; formerly also named Washington's Head), the usual in many of Mindelo's views. See also an old view of it.
