EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "A South Prospect of Ye Flourishing City of New York in the Province of New York in America" takes us back to the early 18th century. Engraved by John Harris between 1717 and 1718, this masterpiece showcases the bustling cityscape that was New York at the time. The image captures a vibrant scene along the river, with ships and boats gracefully navigating its waters. The attention to detail is remarkable, allowing us to witness the daily activities taking place on both land and sea. From tugboats guiding larger vessels to smaller boats transporting goods, this print offers a glimpse into the thriving maritime trade that defined early New York City. Printed from four separate plates on four sheets, this unique impression provides an expansive view of the city's growth during this period. It is a testament to William Burgis' skill as an artist and his ability to capture not only architectural details but also the energy and vitality of urban life. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are transported back in time - imagining what it would have been like to walk these streets or sail these waters centuries ago. It serves as a reminder of how far our beloved city has come while honoring its rich history and heritage.
