EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Forest Park in St. Louis, Missouri, circa 1897. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, but their work beautifully captures the essence of this public park nestled in western St. Louis. Forest Park holds a significant place in history as it was chosen as the location for the renowned 1904 World's Fair, also known as the Louisiana Purchase Exposition. This event marked a turning point for America and showcased its progress on a global stage. The photograph is sourced from "A Tour Through the New World America" by Professor Geo. R. Cromwell, published by C. N. Greig & Co. , London in 1897. It transports us to a serene lakeside scene within Forest Park where boats gently glide across calm waters surrounded by lush trees and vibrant plant life. As we gaze upon this monochrome vista, we are reminded of the beauty and tranquility found within nature's embrace during that era. The image evokes feelings of nostalgia for simpler times when outdoor excursions were cherished moments away from bustling city life. This historical snapshot offers us an opportunity to appreciate both the natural splendor of Forest Park and its significance as a cultural landmark in American history.
