EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling Mississippi River in St. Louis, Missouri, circa 1875. The iconic Eads Bridge stands tall in the background, connecting both sides of the river with its majestic iron arches. In the foreground, boats are moored along the riverbank, creating a picturesque scene that exudes tranquility. One boat that catches our attention is the Lady Lee, a wooden-hulled vessel packed to capacity with goods and cargo. Its presence adds a touch of nostalgia and reminds us of an era when steamboats were vital for transportation and trade along this historic waterway. The engraving by W. Roberts beautifully captures every detail of this momentous scene - from the intricate design of Eads Bridge to the texture of Lady Lee's hull. The monochromatic tones enhance the timeless quality of this image, transporting us back to a bygone era where life moved at a slower pace. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph, we can almost feel ourselves being transported into its frame - breathing in fresh river air on a sunny day while witnessing daily life unfold on one of America's most significant rivers.
