EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken around 1901, showcases the iconic Bethesda Fountain located in Central Park, New York. The image, which measures 8 x 10 inches, captures the essence of the early 20th century in America. The Bethesda Terrace and its famous fountain have long been a beloved landmark and recreational destination for locals and tourists alike. The Bethesda Fountain, also known as the Angel of the Waters, is a cherished work of art that graces the heart of Central Park. Designed by Emma Stebbins and completed in 1873, the fountain is a testament to the country's rich cultural heritage. The terrace, with its grand steps, provides a picturesque backdrop for the fountain and adds to the overall beauty of the scene. In this photograph, several men are seen gathered around the fountain, taking in the serene atmosphere. The image, which was likely captured using a dry plate or glass negative process, showcases the intricate details of the fountain and the clothing of the men, providing a glimpse into the past. The lake in the background adds to the tranquil ambiance and further emphasizes the natural beauty of Central Park. This photograph, from the collection of the Library of Congress, is a reminder of the enduring allure of Central Park and the Bethesda Fountain, which continue to draw visitors from around the world. The image, though unsigned, is a valuable addition to any collection of American history and heritage art.
