EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic Bethesda Fountain in Central Park, New York, circa 1897. The bronze Angel of the Waters statue, designed by Emma Stebbins in 1868, stands proudly at the center of the fountain on Bethesda Terrace. The aerial view captures the circular shape of the fountain and its surrounding landscape. The image is taken from "A Tour Through the New World America" by Professor Geo. R. Cromwell, published by C. N. Greig & Co. , London in 1897. It offers a glimpse into American history during the late 19th century. In this monochrome photograph, we see people enjoying a sunny day near the fountain's elevated position. The concept of water as a source of life and rejuvenation is beautifully portrayed through Stebbins' angelic creation. Central Park itself serves as an oasis within bustling Manhattan, providing respite for both locals and visitors alike. This historic location has become synonymous with leisurely strolls amidst nature's beauty. As we admire this remarkable piece of art captured in time, it reminds us of our connection to history and how public spaces like Central Park continue to be cherished throughout generations.
