EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century, offering a glimpse into the bustling tobacco industry of Jersey City, New Jersey. The image showcases P. Lorillard & Co. 's tobacco factory in all its grandeur. A line engraving from 1876, it beautifully captures the architectural magnificence of this iconic building. Standing tall against the city skyline, the factory's impressive structure dominates the scene. Smoke billows out of multiple smokestacks, evidence of the manufacturing process taking place within its walls. The busy street below is alive with activity - people going about their daily routines and horse-drawn wagons transporting goods to and from the plant. The image evokes a sense of nostalgia for an era when factories played a vital role in shaping American cities. However, it also serves as a reminder of environmental concerns that accompanied industrialization during this time period. The pollution emitted by these towering smokestacks was an unfortunate consequence of progress. As we admire this historical snapshot, let us reflect on how far we have come since then in terms of technological advancements and environmental consciousness. This print is not just a visual representation; it encapsulates an important chapter in American history – one that shaped both our cities and our attitudes towards sustainability.
