EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled 'Upper and Lower Bay of New York,' showcases a nostalgic view of the iconic harbor of New York City during a bygone era. The image, created by the renowned American illustrator, Nathaniel Currier, through the famous Currier & Ives publishing company, transports us back in time to the late 19th century. The Upper Bay, located to the north, is dotted with various vessels, including classic steamers and liners, gracefully anchored or making their way towards the bustling city. In the foreground, a lone tanker dominates the scene, its large silhouette contrasting with the smaller boats and ships. To the south lies the Lower Bay, where the Southwest Harbor and the famous Battery are visible. The Empire State Building, though not yet constructed during this period, is absent from the scene, leaving the view uncluttered and allowing the focus to remain on the maritime activity. The illustration is a testament to the rich maritime history of New York City, with its busy harbor teeming with boats and ships of all sizes. The vintage aesthetic, reminiscent of Currier's distinctive style, adds to the overall charm and allure of this fine art print. Whether you're an admirer of American history, maritime art, or simply love the romanticized charm of a bygone era, this print is sure to be a cherished addition to your collection.
