Dear Manfred,

i guess you are right, thank you very much!

The ships on Lake Zurich look similar, but details like position of masts, decoration on the bow, number of windows in the wheelcover, vents, ... doesn't fit.

Looking at the pictures of "Gallia" leaves no doubt about her identity.

Best regards,

Michael.

Dear Andreas, dear Brian,

thanks for your hints! Both is possible but Zurich is more likely.


Best regards,

Michael.

The town of zurich has also white and blue as flag. So it could be quite possible that the steamer is part of the Lake of Zurich fleet

Did Hermann spend any time in Italy, San Marino's flag is white on blue.
