Entrance to Thousand Islands, 1874. Creator: John J. Harley
Entrance to Thousand Islands, 1874. An artist sketching at Thousand Islands, an archipelago of 1, 864 islands in the Saint Lawrence River, on the Canada-US border....the Thousand Islands number one thousand six hundred and ninety-two, as may be ascertained in the Treaty of Ghent!...our steamer...threads her way through the thirty-nine miles which they thickly intersperse. In size they differ much, however, some being only a few yards in extent, and others several miles. The verdure on most of them is limited to a sturdy growth of fir and pine, with occasionally some scrubby undergrowth, which sprouts with northern vigor from crevices in the rocky bed. From " Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In, A Delineation by Pen and Pencil of the Mountains, Rivers, Lakes...with Illustrations on Steel and Wood by Eminent American Artists" Vol. II, edited by William Cullen Bryant. [D. Appleton and Company, New York, 1874]

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the breathtaking beauty of the Entrance to Thousand Islands in 1874, as seen through the eyes of talented artist John J. Harley. Nestled within the Saint Lawrence River on the Canada-US border, this archipelago boasts a staggering number of 1,864 islands - a fact confirmed by the Treaty of Ghent. As our steamer gracefully navigates through these enchanting islands spread across thirty-nine miles, one cannot help but marvel at their diverse sizes and lush greenery. While some islands are mere yards in size, others stretch for several miles, each with its own unique character. The verdant landscape is dominated by sturdy fir and pine trees that thrive amidst rocky terrain, occasionally accompanied by resilient undergrowth sprouting from crevices with northern vigor. This remarkable image is part of "Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In" an esteemed publication edited by William Cullen Bryant. It showcases not only Harley's artistic prowess but also serves as a testament to the natural wonders that adorn North America's landscapes. As we gaze upon this timeless masterpiece captured over a century ago, it transports us to a place where tranquility meets grandeur - an invitation to explore and immerse ourselves in nature's splendor within Thousand Islands' embrace.
