EDITORS COMMENTS
Temple Gate, Apostle Islands, Lake Superior, c1899: A Captivating View into the Past This photomechanical print, titled 'Temple Gate, Apostle Islands, Lake Superior, c1899,' transports us back in time to the late 19th century in the United States. The image, of unknown origin but sourced from the Library of Congress, showcases the breathtaking beauty of the Apostle Islands located in Lake Superior, Wisconsin. The Temple Gate, a natural sandstone arch formation, stands proudly on Sand Island, one of the 21 islands that make up the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore. The islands, known for their unique geological features and picturesque landscapes, have long been a popular travel destination in the United States. This vintage photograph, created using the Photochrom process, showcases the islands in all their splendor. The clear blue waters of Lake Superior reflect the vibrant colors of the autumn foliage, creating a stunning contrast against the rugged, sandstone cliffs. The Temple Gate, a natural wonder, stands as a testament to the power and beauty of nature. The image, taken by an unknown photographer, likely during the late 1800s, offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a historical record of this beautiful and unique location. The print, produced by Detroit Publishing Co. (not to be confused with the publishing company of the same name), was part of a larger collection of photographic reproductions of scenic views of America's natural wonders, produced by the company between 1895 and 1920. This photograph, with its rich colors and intricate details, invites us to explore the natural beauty of the Apostle Islands and to appreciate the heritage and history of this unique place in the United States.
