A Glimpse into the Past: New York City as New Amsterdam in 1650 (C1650) This panoramic view takes us back in time to the early days of New York City, when it was known as New Amsterdam. The image, dated circa 1650 (C1650), is a rare and precious window into the history of this bustling metropolis. The photograph, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, shows the thriving Dutch settlement nestled at the southern tip of Manhattan Island. The view is dominated by the imposing fortification of the Dutch colonial fort, which protected the community from potential threats. The fort, with its high walls and watchtowers, stands proudly against the backdrop of the natural beauty of the Hudson River and the lush greenery of the surrounding landscape. The scene is a fascinating blend of the old and the new. On the one hand, we see the simple, wooden houses of the Dutch settlers, their chimneys puffing out smoke, and the bustling marketplace, where traders exchange goods. On the other hand, we see the native Americans, dressed in their traditional attire, interacting with the settlers, reflecting the rich cultural exchange that was taking place. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the daily life of the Dutch colonists. We see them going about their business, from fishing in the river to tending to their livestock. The hustle and bustle of the marketplace, with its vibrant colors and sounds, adds to the sense of energy and vitality that characterized New Amsterdam in its early days. This panoramic view is a testament to the rich history of New York City and the important role it played in the development of the United States. It is a reminder of the many stories and experiences that have shaped the city we know today, and a reminder of the importance of preserving our history for future generations.
