EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1760, offering a glimpse into the historical significance of Crown Point on Lake Champlain in New York. The South view of the fort at Crown Point is beautifully depicted in this wash drawing by Thomas Davies, an American artist from that era. The image showcases a landscape filled with colonial charm and natural beauty. Nestled amidst rolling hills, we see the impressive fort standing tall against the backdrop of Lake Champlain. Its sturdy exterior hints at its strategic importance during the French and Indian War. As our eyes wander across the scene, we notice a log cabin tucked away in one corner, symbolizing early settlement and human presence in this untamed wilderness. A tent nearby suggests military activity or perhaps exploratory endeavors. Davies' attention to detail transports us back to a time when upstate New York was still largely unexplored territory. This mid-18th century artwork captures both the allure and challenges faced by those who ventured into these lands centuries ago. CROWN POINT, 1760 invites us to reflect upon America's rich history while marveling at nature's grandeur. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come since then and encourages us to appreciate our heritage as well as cherish our present-day surroundings.
