EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of Arx Carolina, the original fortified settlement at Charleston, South Carolina. Published in 1673, this lithograph by the American School beautifully captures the essence of colonial America and its rich history. The image transports us to a bustling scene along the river, as boats arrive at this southern states' colony. The landscape is teeming with activity – from tugboats guiding vessels towards shore to locals eagerly awaiting their arrival. The deep south's topography is on full display, showcasing the coastal beauty that has long captivated visitors. At the heart of it all stands Arx Carolina, a formidable fort that served as both protection and symbol of power for early settlers. Its commanding presence against the backdrop of sea and shoreline reminds us of the strategic importance placed on maritime defense during those times. This engraving offers a glimpse into an era when Charleston was just beginning to establish itself as a thriving port city. It serves as a testament to our nation's roots and highlights how far we have come since those early days. As you gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, allow yourself to be transported back in time – where ships sailed these waters and dreams were forged in what would become one of America's most beloved cities.
