EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white albumen print, titled "Down East Water St. from the Kirby House, 1880/89" takes us back to late 19th century Milwaukee. Created by renowned photographer Henry Hamilton Bennett, this stereo image (no. 840) is part of his iconic series "Milwaukee and Vicinity". The photograph showcases a bustling street scene filled with the energy of daily life in America's heartland. As we gaze upon this historical gem, we are transported to a time when horse-drawn trams ruled the roads and public transport was still in its infancy. The meticulously captured details reveal a vibrant cityscape lined with elegant buildings that evoke a sense of grandeur and progress. Bennett's mastery of stereoscopic photography allows us to perceive depth in this image, adding an immersive quality that brings history alive before our eyes. We can almost hear the clatter of hooves on cobblestone streets and feel the anticipation as people go about their daily routines. The significance of this photograph extends beyond its artistic value; it serves as a valuable record documenting Milwaukee's growth during an era marked by industrialization and urban development. It offers us a glimpse into the past while reminding us how far we have come. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago, this albumen silver print stands as a testament to Bennett's skillful eye for capturing moments frozen in time. Its presence in Heritage Art ensures that future generations can appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and historical importance within Milwaukee County, Wisconsin – an enduring symbol of America's rich heritage.
