EDITORS COMMENTS
This photochrom print, titled 'The Frog Pond, Boston Common, c1899,' offers a glimpse into the past of one of Boston, Massachusetts' most cherished landmarks. Located in the heart of the city's historic Boston Common, this picturesque scene showcases the Frog Pond, a popular tourist attraction and geographical feature that has long drawn visitors to the area. The image, created in the late 19th century, captures the essence of a bygone era. The Frog Pond, a small lake surrounded by lush greenery, is the focal point of the photograph. The crystal-clear waters reflect the vibrant colors of the surrounding trees, their leaves in various stages of autumn transformation. In the foreground, a solitary tree, adorned with its full autumnal splendor, stands proudly, framing the scene perfectly. The serene atmosphere is further enhanced by the presence of the ornate, Victorian-era fountain, which adds an element of elegance and charm to the scene. The intricate details of the fountain's design are visible, from the delicate carvings to the intricate patterns of the water jetting from its spout. This photochrom print, created by an unknown artist, is a testament to the rich heritage and history of Boston Common. It invites us to take a step back in time and appreciate the natural beauty and tranquility that has made this location a beloved tourist destination for over a century. The print, held in the collections of the Library of Congress, is a valuable addition to any collection of American history, nature, or photography. Its intricate details and stunning colors transport us to a time when life moved at a slower pace, and the simple pleasures of nature were cherished and celebrated.
