EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored woodcut print showcases the breathtaking beauty of the Mississippi River and the bustling city of Minneapolis in the 1870s. The image takes us back to a time when Minneapolis was still a village known as St. Anthony, nestled along the banks of this majestic river in Minnesota. The illustration captures a moment in history when St. Anthony's Falls, an impressive waterfall on the Mississippi River, served as both a natural wonder and an essential source of power for early industries. The falls stand tall and powerful amidst the picturesque landscape, symbolizing both nature's grandeur and mankind's industrious spirit. As we gaze at this vintage artwork, we are transported to a bygone era filled with American heritage and tradition. It reminds us of our nation's rich history during the 19th century, particularly in North America's midwestern region. The print not only serves as a visual delight but also offers insight into how art played an important role in documenting historical landmarks like these falls. It allows us to appreciate how artists captured moments that would otherwise be lost to time. Let this enchanting depiction transport you back to an era where nature met industry, where waterfalls roared alongside growing cities – all preserved within this remarkable piece of art from North Wind Picture Archives.
