EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the dramatic scene of fire floats battling a raging fire in New York, USA. The vibrant colors of the lithograph bring to life the intensity and urgency of this firefighting operation. Taken from "The Picture Book of Firemen" published in the early 20th century, this image showcases the bravery and determination of these firefighters. In the foreground, we see several fire floats strategically positioned on the water, their powerful hoses spraying streams of water towards towering flames engulfing a building. The boats are illuminated by bright orange and yellow hues as they navigate through billowing smoke and embers. The bustling pier serves as a backdrop for this chaotic scene, with docks filled with onlookers witnessing this extraordinary event unfold before their eyes. The harbor wall provides a sense of stability amidst chaos while moored boats add an additional layer of realism to this depiction. This image not only highlights the heroism displayed by American firefighters but also serves as a reminder that even in times of great danger, unity prevails. It symbolizes how communities come together during crises to protect one another and preserve what is most important. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this piece from our past, allowing us to appreciate both its historical significance and artistic value.
