This postcard is clearly taken later than the previous one - probably sometime between 1903 and 1911.
The port jetties and lighthouses have been built and there seems to be a new railway station, where the tracks disappear into the mountain.
Many of the villas have been replaced near the casino.
The casino itself has grown a tower and looks more like our current version.
I think the larger of the two steamships in the foreground, with the brown funnel, is Prince Albert's Princesse Alice II.
A little research leads me to conclude that Jean Giletta was the photographer of the postcard, although he is not credited on the card.
He founded a company called Editions Giletta in Nice with his brothers and was a prolific photographer and maker of postcards of the Cote d'Azur.
In some senses he put the Riviera on the map, contributing to much of the mystique associated with this stretch of coastline in the early 20th century.
He died in 1933, so from what I understand this picture should be in the public domain, though I would be grateful if anyone can clarify this.
Photographer: Jean Giletta (1856 - 1933)
