Hailing the Ferry, 1897
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a nostalgic scene from 19th century America. In this photogravure print by John E. Dumont, we are transported to a picturesque river estuary where a young woman stands on the shore, calling out to a ferry boat in the distance. The simplicity of her clothing and clogs reflects the modesty of the time period. The image evokes a sense of romance and longing as we witness this intimate moment between human and nature. The concept of transportation is beautifully portrayed through the presence of both water and land vessels, symbolizing progress and connection. Dumont's artistic skill shines through in his ability to capture not only physical landscapes but also emotional ones. Through his lens, he invites us to reflect on our own heritage as Americans while appreciating the beauty that lies within our country's geographical features. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago, this piece serves as an important reminder of our nation's rich history and cultural identity. It reminds us that even in simpler times, there was still room for adventure and exploration. As we gaze upon "Hailing the Ferry" let us be reminded of how far we have come as a society while cherishing those moments when life seemed slower yet filled with possibility.
