EDITORS COMMENTS
This lantern slide image transports us back in time to the Fulton Ferry Terminal in New York, USA, circa 1890. The terminal, located at the end of Fulton Street in Brooklyn, was a vital transportation hub during the late 19th century, connecting Manhattan and Brooklyn via paddle steamers. The photograph showcases a serene scene of the terminal, with several paddle steamers docked along the pier. The intricately designed boats, reminiscent of a bygone era, display their grandeur as they rest peacefully in the harbor. The terminal building, with its distinctive red roof and white columns, stands proudly in the background. The hustle and bustle of activity is absent in this moment, leaving us with a tranquil and picturesque view. The clear blue waters of the harbor reflect the sky above, adding to the overall beauty of the scene. The Fulton Ferry Terminal was a symbol of progress and connection during the 1890s, and this image encapsulates the essence of that time. The lantern slide, an early form of visual presentation, was a popular medium for educational and entertainment purposes during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This photograph, with its exceptional detail and composition, would have made for an engaging and captivating presentation. Today, it serves as a reminder of the rich history and evolution of transportation in New York City and the United States.
