EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting Wharf at Nantucket Island, Massachusetts in the 1870s. Captured by Rev Samuel Manning and beautifully illustrated with pen and pencil, this antique piece of history transports us to a time when transportation and communication were vastly different from what we know today. The image showcases a bustling scene filled with various modes of transport. Horse-drawn wagons, known as drays, navigate their way along the jetty while boats paddle through the calm waters of the ocean. The pier stands tall against the backdrop of an expansive sea, welcoming travelers arriving on steamers from distant shores. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, it is impossible not to be captivated by the charm and simplicity that defined life during this era. The illustration perfectly captures both the tranquility of island living and the excitement brought by visitors arriving on these shores. Ken Welsh's meticulous attention to detail brings every element of this scene to life - from each horse pulling its wagon to every ripple in the water beneath passing boats. This print serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of transportation and communication while simultaneously celebrating our connection to America's rich past. Whether you are an art enthusiast or simply appreciate nostalgia for times gone by, "The Wharf At Nantucket Island Massachusetts In 1870S" will undoubtedly transport you back in time with its exquisite depiction of a significant moment in American history.
