The composition features a classic wooden flat-bottomed rowboat, a staple utility vessel of the era, carrying a passenger across the glass-like water. The woman in the boat is dressed in traditional Breton attire, including a dark, high-necked dress and a distinctive white lace coiffe (headdress), a regional symbol of identity. In the distance, the twin spires of the Saint-Corentin Cathedral rise above the tree-lined embankments, perfectly evoking the maritime heritage and quiet atmosphere of early 20th-century Breton life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEra: White Border (c. 1920s)\u003cbr\u003eCity: Quimper\u003cbr\u003eState: Finistère\u003cbr\u003eRegion: Brittany (Bretagne)\u003cbr\u003eCountry: France\u003cbr\u003eTopic: Quimper Cathedral, Odet River, River Ferrymen, Breton Landscapes, French Topographical Views.\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Uncirculated\u003cbr\u003eAddress Side: Divided Back\u003cbr\u003eOrientation: Vertical (Portrait)\u003cbr\u003eArtist \/ Photographer: Pierre-Yves Petit (Yvon)\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Les Editions d'Art Yvon, Paris (14, Rue de Bretagne)\u003cbr\u003ePrinter: Fabrication Française\u003cbr\u003ePrint Type: Heliogravure \/ Photogravure\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe reverse side identifies this card as number 8 in the Bretagne sub-series of the La Douce France collection.
