Collect Pond, New York City, 1798 - A Glimpse into the Serene Past
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the year 1798, offering a mesmerizing glimpse of Collect Pond in New York City. The artwork is attributed to Archibald Robertson and formerly attributed to Alexander Robertson. With its delicate watercolor and black chalk on off-white laid paper, it beautifully captures the essence of this historical moment. The scene depicts a serene landscape with rolling hills in the distance, dotted by towering spires that pierce through the skyline of Manhattan Island. Three figures grace the footpath leading towards the pond – two men and a woman – their presence adding a touch of human connection amidst nature's grandeur. A winding path meanders through lush greenery adorned with willow trees, their graceful branches cascading over the tranquil waters of Collect Pond. The vibrant blue hues evoke a sense of calmness and tranquility as if time stood still within this idyllic setting. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Heritage Art at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, we are transported back to an era when Manhattan was still evolving and nature coexisted harmoniously with architectural wonders. It serves as a reminder of our rich American heritage and invites us to appreciate both our past and present surroundings. Let this enchanting image be an invitation for reflection on how landscapes change over time while reminding us that some aspects endure - like Collect Pond itself - forever etched into history's tape
