EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of Philadelphia's Lake, near Belmont Avenue in Fairmount Park. Taken by an American photographer in the 19th century, this image is a testament to the rich history and charm of Pennsylvania's largest city. The photograph showcases a peaceful scene, with the lake reflecting the surrounding trees and sky. The tranquility of the water is juxtaposed against the bustling cityscape that lies just beyond its shores. It serves as a reminder of how nature can coexist harmoniously with urban development. Dating back to 1898, this image was originally featured as an illustration in "Fifty Glimpses of Philadelphia and Vicinity" published by Rand McNally. It offers viewers a glimpse into life during that era - a time when horse-drawn carriages traversed cobblestone streets and people strolled along park pathways for leisurely recreation. As we gaze upon this historic photograph, we are transported back to a time when America was still young and full of promise. It reminds us of our roots and invites us to appreciate both our natural surroundings and architectural achievements. This print from Fine Art Finder is not only an exquisite piece capturing Philadelphia's past but also serves as a window into our collective history as Americans. Its timeless appeal speaks volumes about our shared heritage while reminding us to cherish moments of serenity amidst the hustle and bustle of modern life.
