EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "A Plan of the City of New York from an Actual Survey, 1755" an engraving on ink and paper created by the American School in the 18th century. Measuring 48x85 cm, this historical piece is proudly housed in the esteemed collection of the New-York Historical Society in the USA. The intricate details captured within this map transport viewers back to a time when New York City was still emerging as a bustling metropolis. The streets depicted here, such as King Street, Queen Street, Broadway, and Maiden Lane, serve as a reminder of their historical significance and how they have shaped modern-day Manhattan. As one gazes upon this image, it becomes evident that much has changed over time. The roads are narrower than what we are accustomed to today; downtown appears less crowded with buildings compared to its current state. This snapshot into history allows us to appreciate the growth and transformation that has taken place within one of America's most iconic cities. With its rich heritage and cultural significance, this print serves as a valuable resource for historians and enthusiasts alike. It offers a glimpse into the past while reminding us of our connection to those who walked these very streets centuries ago. As we admire this remarkable artwork from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let us celebrate both the beauty found within its composition and our shared human experience across generations.
