EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of New York in April 1832. The image showcases the magnificent North American Hotel, a true architectural gem of its time. Its creator remains unknown, but their skillful engraving and etching have beautifully captured the grandeur of this historic landmark. Located on Bowery Street, the North American Hotel stands tall against the backdrop of a rapidly growing city. Its impressive exterior design reflects both elegance and strength, showcasing intricate details that were characteristic of 19th-century America. The hotel's lettering proudly announces its name to passersby, while stables adjacent to it hint at a bygone era when horse-drawn carriages were still a common sight on these busy streets. This photograph serves as a testament to an important chapter in New York's history, offering us a glimpse into life during this transformative period. Preserved by Peter B. Walker and now housed within The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this remarkable piece captures not only the architecture but also the spirit of early America. It invites us to reflect upon our country's heritage and appreciate how far we have come since those days. As we gaze upon this enchanting scene frozen in time, we are reminded that even amidst progress and change, there is value in preserving our past for future generations to admire and learn from.
