Magic Lantern slide circa 1900 hand coloured. Titled Cities and places of interest in the Mediterranean.15.—NICE FROM THE VILLEFRANCHE ROAD. We are at Nice, and one of the most usual excursions made from there is to Villefranche, whence an excellent retropective view of the “ Phryne ” of European winter cities is obtained. Looking back we see her sheltering under the mountain that protects her from the cold north winds, and Smiling in the sup. Villefranche itself is a fortified natural harbour, in which all the men of war of other nations cast anchor when here, and it is the custom of the.American navy [B] to have one at least of their war vessels quartered here during the season.
