EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white albumen print, titled "Glass Globe at Fort William Henry Hotel, New York," was captured by renowned American photographer Seneca Ray Stoddard around the 1880s. The image transports us back in time to the picturesque Fort William Henry Hotel, located in New York, United States. The photograph showcases the hotel's distinctive glass globe feature, which once served as a beacon, guiding travelers to this historic lodging. The glass globe, perched atop a tall pole, stands proudly against the backdrop of a clear, blue sky, reflecting the surrounding landscape and casting an ethereal glow. Stoddard, an accomplished photographer known for his meticulous attention to detail, expertly captures the intricacies of the glass globe, from its delicate curves to the subtle reflections it creates. The use of a tripod and a camera with a fine-grained black and white film further enhances the image's clarity and depth. The Fort William Henry Hotel, nestled in the scenic Adirondack Mountains, was a popular destination for tourists during the late 19th century. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the rich history and heritage of New York's hospitality industry. Today, this image is part of the esteemed collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), showcasing the enduring allure of Stoddard's work and the significance of the Fort William Henry Hotel in American history.
