EDITORS COMMENTS
MICHIGAN: DETROIT, 1794. The earliest known painting of Detroit captures the essence of this historic city in a mesmerizing watercolor print. Created by an anonymous artist in 1794, this artwork offers a glimpse into the past and showcases the beauty of Detroit's landscape. The scene depicted in the painting is filled with life and activity. A bustling cityscape emerges along the shores of the Detroit River, as canoes and rowboats gracefully glide through its waters. Sailing ships dotting the horizon add to the maritime charm of this vibrant port town. Fort Detroit stands tall on land, serving as a reminder of its strategic importance during that era. The surrounding lakeshore exudes tranquility, inviting viewers to imagine themselves strolling along its peaceful banks. This fine example of Americana art not only preserves history but also celebrates it. It allows us to appreciate how far Detroit has come while acknowledging its rich heritage rooted in trade and exploration. Whether you are an art enthusiast or a history buff, this watercolor print transports you back to a time when Detroit was just beginning to shape its identity as one of America's great cities.
