From the Komárno Shipyard

Komárno is Slovakia's principal port on the Danube and the former fortress against the expansion of the Ottoman Turks. The shipyard industrial district was the city's primary force of modern post-war economic development. Hundreds of river and seagoing cargo vessels were built here.

Karol Kállay was a world-renowned photographer, who created iconic character shots of people from all walks of life and in many countries, including Mexico, Italy, Japan, USA and the Soviet Union. His sense of light, composition and inherent humanism influenced generations of photographers, not only in Slovakia.
