EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between 1880 and 1899, captures the picturesque scene of Beaver Dam Lake's Camp Dixon in Wisconsin, USA. The image, measuring 8 x 10 inches, is a testament to the rich history of this idyllic waterfront location. During this period, Camp Dixon was a popular destination for visitors seeking relaxation and recreation. The image shows a serene lake, with its calm waters reflecting the clear blue sky and the surrounding lush greenery. A steamboat is docked at the wharf, its smokestacks belching plumes of steam, adding a touch of industry and transportation to the bucolic setting. The photograph was likely taken using a dry plate or glass negative process, a common technique during the nineteenth century. The image is devoid of color, adding to its timeless and nostalgic appeal. The photograph's creator remains unknown, but it is believed to have been taken by either Edwin H. Husher or William A. Livingstone, two prominent photographers of the era. The photograph is now part of the vast collection of the Library of Congress, a testament to the enduring value of historical records and the importance of preserving our nation's heritage. The image provides a glimpse into a bygone era, a time when the simple pleasures of nature and the joy of water transport ruled the day.
