EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of the entrance to Sanitarium Park in Alma, Michigan, between 1895 and 1910. The scene showcases the tranquil beauty of the park's entrance, with trees lining the road and a man in a horse-drawn carriage making his way through. In the background, the imposing structure of the sanatorium stands proudly, a symbol of hope and healing during an era when such institutions were a vital part of American healthcare. The photograph, taken in the late 19th or early 20th century, is a testament to the evolution of transportation. Cars were becoming increasingly popular, as evidenced by the automobiles parked near the entrance. However, horses and carriages still held their own, offering a more leisurely and personal mode of travel. The image, a dry plate glass negative, is a stunning example of the artistry and skill of the photographers of the time. The contrast between the dark trees and the light entranceway creates a sense of depth and dimension, while the crisp details reveal the intricacies of the scene. Sanitarium Park, located in Alma, Gratiot County, Michigan, was a popular destination for those seeking respite and relaxation. The park's picturesque surroundings and therapeutic environment made it a beloved retreat for visitors from all walks of life. This photograph, from the collection of the Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time of change and progress. The scene is a reminder of the rich history and heritage of America, and the enduring allure of the great outdoors.
