EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of Lake of the Isles in Thousand Islands, New York state. Taken around 1897 by an unknown creator, this image showcases the breathtaking archipelago of islands that dot the Saint Lawrence River on the Canadian-US border. Featured in "A Tour Through the New World America" by Professor Geo. R. Cromwell, this picture transports us back to a time when nature's wonders were celebrated through art and literature. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless charm to this landscape, highlighting every intricate detail from the branches of evergreen trees to their reflections on the calm water surface. As we gaze upon this scene, we are reminded of America's rich geographical diversity and its ability to inspire awe and discovery. The composition perfectly balances elements of nature with man-made structures like boats or buildings absent from view, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in this unspoiled vista. The photo invites us to appreciate both the grandeur and tranquility found within our country's borders. It serves as a reminder that even amidst rapid industrialization during the late 19th century, pockets of untouched natural beauty still existed for people like Professor George Cromwell to document and share with others. This remarkable snapshot is not just a visual delight but also an invitation for contemplation about our connection with nature and how it has shaped our understanding of America throughout history.
