This view shows the Royal Palace Hotel in Ostend, a Belgian seaside resort on the North Sea that drew fashionable visitors in the late 1800s. The print is a photochrom, a process that used multiple stone printing passes to give photographs soft, lifelike color. The Detroit Publishing Company issued it in a catalog of European views sold to American buyers, and grand coastal hotels like this one catered to guests who came for sea bathing and promenades along the seafront.
