EDITORS COMMENTS
This photomechanical print, created around 1901, showcases the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) campus in Boston, United States. The image, captured by an unknown photographer, transports us back in time to the early 20th century. The campus, adorned with red brick buildings, exudes a sense of academic heritage and progress. In the foreground, a horse-drawn carriage, a common mode of transportation during that era, adds to the historic ambiance. People can be seen walking along the tree-lined streets, adding to the vibrant scene. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, a prominent institution of higher learning, is located in Boston, Massachusetts, United States. The campus, established in 1861, has been a pioneer in education and research, particularly in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. The image captures the exterior of one of the campus buildings, possibly Edwin H. Hussey Laboratory or Maclaurin Building, which were among the oldest structures on the campus at the time. The photomechanical print, published by Detroit Publishing Company, was part of a series of colorized prints produced using the Photochrom process. The process involved hand-coloring photographs using a series of pigments, resulting in vivid, colorful images. This particular print is now part of the collections of the Library of Congress, a treasure trove of American history and culture. The image offers a unique glimpse into the past, showcasing the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in its early days, as well as the transportation methods and architectural styles of the time. It serves as a reminder of the rich history and heritage of American education and the evolution of transportation.
