EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the industrial era of the United States, circa 1925. The image showcases a factory building nestled amidst rail lines, with a prominent water tower and smokestack rising proudly from its roof. The smokestack, an essential component of any industrial facility during that period, served as a chimney to release hot flue gases or smoke generated by boilers, stoves, furnaces, or fireplaces into the atmosphere. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of American industry at its peak. It evokes a sense of power and progress as we witness this symbol of manufacturing might against the backdrop of urban development. The intricate details within the frame transport us to an era when factories were bustling with activity and railroads were lifelines for transporting goods across vast distances. Frederic Lewis skillfully immortalizes this moment in history through his lens. His composition allows us to appreciate both the architectural grandeur of the factory building itself and its integration within an evolving landscape shaped by technological advancements. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Fine Art Storehouse's collection, we are reminded not only of America's industrial prowess but also how far society has come since then. This photograph serves as a testament to our ability to adapt and innovate while reflecting on our shared past.
