EDITORS COMMENTS
This bird's-eye view print of St. Joseph's Academy in Emmitsburg, Maryland, transports us back in time to the late 19th century. The serene and picturesque scene showcases the academic institution nestled amidst the rolling hills and lush greenery of the countryside. Established in 1809, St. Joseph's Academy was a prominent Catholic boarding school for young ladies, renowned for its rigorous academic curriculum and nurturing environment. The print reveals the academy's impressive architecture, with its red-roofed buildings arranged around a central quad, surrounded by verdant lawns and gardens. The school's Gothic Revival chapel, with its tall spire and intricate stonework, stands proudly at the heart of the campus. The print also reveals the surrounding landscape, dotted with farmsteads, woodlands, and winding country roads. The tranquility of the scene is further accentuated by the absence of modern conveniences, such as automobiles and electricity. Horse-drawn carriages and wagons are the primary mode of transportation, and the only sounds are those of birds chirping and the wind rustling through the trees. This print offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a profound appreciation for the history and beauty of St. Joseph's Academy and the rural charm of Emmitsburg, Maryland, during the late 1800s.
