EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Vicinity of Ithaca, 1874" transports us back to the scenic beauty of upstate New York in the late 19th century. Taken by John Douglas Woodward, this image captures a picturesque view of Enfield Falls, Buttermilk Falls, Buttermilk Ravine, Cornell University, and Cayuga Lake. The photograph showcases the natural wonders that make Cayuga Lake renowned for its stunning waterfalls. The falls are located at the southern end of the lake near Ithaca town. The cascading waters create a mesmerizing spectacle against the backdrop of rocky formations and lush greenery. In addition to its natural splendor, this area is also home to Cornell University - an esteemed institution known for its academic excellence. The university's presence adds another layer of significance to this already breathtaking landscape. Woodward's skillful composition highlights both the grandeur and tranquility found within this region. His attention to detail allows viewers to immerse themselves in every aspect of this scene - from the oval-shaped ravine carved by centuries-old water erosion to the delicate mist created by rushing waterfalls.
