EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating engraving, "From the Old World to the New, entering New York Harbour" transports viewers back in time to a moment of great significance. Created by William Lionel Wyllie in 1893, this print captures the awe-inspiring sight of immigrants arriving at their new home: New York City. As the vessel glides through the waters of New York Harbour, one cannot help but be struck by the grandeur and promise that awaits these newcomers. The iconic Statue of Liberty stands tall and proud, her torch held high as a beacon of hope for those seeking a better life. The city skyline looms in the distance, with its towering buildings symbolizing opportunity and prosperity. This engraving was originally featured in The Graphic on June 17th, 1893 - an era when immigration to America was at its peak. It serves as a poignant reminder of the countless individuals who embarked on perilous journeys across oceans to start anew in this land of dreams. Through intricate details and masterful technique, Wyllie brings this historical moment to life. Each stroke tells a story - from the expressions on passengers' faces reflecting anticipation or trepidation, to waves crashing against the ship's hull signifying both farewell and welcome. "From the Old World to the New" is not just an artwork; it is a testament to resilience and human spirit. It reminds us all that we are products of migration - bound together by our shared desire for freedom and opportunity.
