Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Essays on Foreign Subjects Although a Neapolitan would probably not relish the remark, there would be a good deal to be said for the proposition that the Gulf of Salerno is even more beautiful than the Bay of Naples, The best views of the Bay of Naples are certainly those from the land, where the spectator is surrounded by the exquisite vegetation which forms so delightful a feature in that enchanting region. But the outlines of the land itself are seldom striking, and even the immense cone of Vesuvius is not picturesque in form; while the lovely colour of the sea and atmosphere are liable in the winter and spring to be blighted by the cold winds of the North. On the other side of the peninsula of Sorrento the view lies open only to the South. The sea is protected from the blasts of the North, and the land-locked appearance so admired by the Neapolitans is more than compensated for by the unbroken expanse of sunlit sea which stretches away beyond the Isles of the Syrens until the tint of its blue waters melts through phases of silver mist into the blue of the Southern sky.
