EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed lithograph takes us back in time to the year 1679, offering a captivating glimpse into the bustling East River shore and shipyard at the foot of Maiden Lane. The American School artist skillfully captures the essence of this historical moment, transporting us to an era when windmills dotted the skyline at Broadway and Fulton Street. The scene is alive with activity as ships sail along the river, their sails billowing in the breeze. Workers can be seen laboring diligently at the shipyard, constructing vessels that will soon embark on daring voyages across oceans. The architecture of old New York City comes to life through intricate details, showcasing buildings that have long since disappeared from our modern landscape. This print was originally created for Valentine's Manual of Old New York in 1921, serving as a visual representation of bygone times. It serves as a reminder of how much has changed over centuries while also highlighting elements that remain timeless. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal period in American history. It reminds us of our roots and invites contemplation about how far we have come as a nation. This lithograph is not just an image; it is a portal into another world - one filled with stories waiting to be discovered and shared.
