EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of the Mississippi River landing at Vicksburg, Mississippi, USA, circa 1905. The serene waters of the mighty Mississippi River reflect the sun-kissed sky as two grand steamboats, the Belle of Calhoun on the left and the Belle of the Bends on the right, gracefully dock. The Belle of Calhoun, with its ornate decorations and tall smokestacks, exudes an air of elegance and luxury, while the Belle of the Bends, with its simpler design, appears more utilitarian in nature. Passengers disembark from the Belle of Calhoun, making their way down the gangway, greeted by the sight of horses and carts waiting to transport them to their destinations. Sacks of cargo are being loaded onto the carts, while men in work clothes busy themselves with the unloading process. The scene is a testament to the vital role that riverboats played in the transportation of people and goods during the 1900s. The Mississippi River landing at Vicksburg was a bustling hub of activity, connecting the heartland of America to the Gulf of Mexico and beyond. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the mighty Mississippi River was the lifeblood of the nation, and steamboats ruled the waterways.
