Smit & Palarczyk > [SWITZER.TICINO 01379] 'Pool of a 'Lebenserotiker', Brissago Island.' The larger of the two Brissago Islands was until 1949 in the hands of the Max Emden, owner of a German chain of department stores. When 60 he decided to become a 'Lebenserotiker' as a way of retirement. The female beauties, gamboling about naked on his island, caused a stir regularly. His favorite passtime was sitting in his rocking chair at this pool, throwing coins in the water and looking at the ladies diving after them. Photo Paul Smit.
Smit & Palarczyk > [SWITZER.TICINO 01382] 'Brissago Island.' The Lago Maggiore is famous for its exotic islands. The Swiss part has two: the Isole Brissago. The smallest is untouched, the larger (photo) transformed into a botanical garden. Happy flowering oleander proves frost is absent here, just like on the Mediterranean coast. Photo Paul Smit.
