EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Departure of the Clermont on her First Voyage" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by the American School in the 19th century, this print captures the essence of discovery and innovation. The image depicts the iconic steamboat, Clermont, setting sail on its maiden voyage. This groundbreaking invention was designed by Robert Fulton, an ingenious inventor whose vision revolutionized transportation forever. As we gaze upon this print, we can almost feel the anticipation and excitement that filled the air as spectators gathered to witness this historic event. The scene is beautifully detailed with people lining up along the riverbanks to bid farewell to those aboard. The smoke billowing from Clermont's chimney symbolizes progress and signifies a departure from traditional means of travel. It represents a new era dawning upon humanity – one where technology would shape our world like never before. Inventors have always played a crucial role in shaping society's trajectory, and Philip G Hubert's book "Inventors" pays homage to their contributions. This engraving serves as an illustration for Hubert's work published in Scribner's magazine in 1894. As we admire this artwork captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let us reflect on how inventions like Clermont paved the way for countless advancements that continue to impact our lives today.
