EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "View of New York" takes us back to the 18th century when this bustling metropolis was still a colony. Engraved by Balthazar Frederic Leizelt and part of the French School collection, this print offers a unique perspective on the city's maritime history. The scene depicts a vibrant harbor with ships of all sizes dotting the River Hudson. A majestic galleon stands tall in the foreground, its flag fluttering proudly in the wind. Alongside it, smaller boats and rowing vessels navigate through the waterways, showcasing an era before independence. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every building along Manhattan's skyline is meticulously etched into existence. The quayside bustles with activity as workers engage in shipbuilding and transportation tasks. A tugboat gracefully glides across the river while ferryboats transport passengers from one side to another. Perhaps most intriguingly, this engraving may have been intended for viewing through a magic camera—a device that added depth and realism to images during that time period—making it even more enchanting for viewers. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece from Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France, we are transported back in time to witness New York City's early days as a thriving port and colonial hub. It serves as a reminder of how far this great American city has come since then—an enduring symbol of progress and innovation.
