EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite and meticulously detailed plan of New York City in 1851, crafted by the talented cartographer John Tallis. The map encompasses not only New York but also neighboring districts such as Jersey, Panovia, Hoboken, Brooklyn, and Williamsburgh within the United States of America. As one explores this enchanting piece of history, they will notice the bustling ferries traversing the Hudson and East River, long before the advent of grand bridges that now grace these waters. Every individual docking port and Packet is thoughtfully labeled on this map, providing a glimpse into the thriving maritime activity of that era. Additionally, six beautifully illustrated vignettes adorn this masterpiece: sailing boats and steamers dotting the view towards Brooklyn at its top; City Hall and Custom House majestically positioned to its top right; a panoramic vista across to New York from Williamsburg gracing its bottom section; and finally, a mesmerizing depiction of Fort Hamilton offering a view of the Narrows. Immerse yourself in this historic treasure which offers an insight into how New York City appeared over 150 years ago. With its remarkable attention to detail and artistic flair evident throughout every inch of this work by John Tallis – renowned for his exceptional craftsmanship – it serves as both a testament to our rich past while igniting curiosity about how much has changed since then.
