EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures a significant moment in American history - Robert Fulton's iconic steamboat, the Clermont, making its way upstream on the Hudson River. The year is 1810, and this print provides us with the only known contemporary view of this groundbreaking vessel. Created by French artist Charles Balthazar Julien Fevret de Saint-Memin in 1818, it beautifully showcases the landscape surrounding West Point as the Clermont steams towards Albany from New York City. The image transports us back to a time when steam power was revolutionizing transportation and shaping the future of maritime travel. The paddle wheel churning through the water demonstrates Fulton's innovative engineering prowess and his determination to prove that steamboats were not just a passing fad. As we gaze at this lithograph, we can almost feel ourselves standing on the riverside, marveling at this impressive vessel gliding through calm waters. The tree-lined banks of the Hudson River provide a picturesque backdrop for this historic scene. This print serves as a reminder of Robert Fulton's immense contribution to American industry and transportation. It immortalizes an era when progress was being made against all odds and celebrates Fulton's vision that forever changed river navigation.
