EDITORS COMMENTS
This photochrom print, dated around 1900, showcases a picturesque scene at Picnic Rocks on the Kennebunk River in Kennebunkport, Maine, USA. The serene riverbank is dotted with trees and plants, their vibrant colors contrasting beautifully against the cool, clear water. Boats of various sizes and shapes are anchored at the waters edge, their sails furled and oars stowed, as if waiting for their owners to return. The tranquil setting invites relaxation and enjoyment, as evidenced by the group of people gathered on the rocks, seemingly engaged in a leisurely picnic. The lush greenery, the gentle flow of the river, and the sun-kissed trees all contribute to the idyllic atmosphere. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a simpler time when life moved at a slower pace. The scene is reminiscent of the many charming waterfront towns that dot the coast of Maine, each with its unique character and natural beauty. This photomechanical print, produced by Detroit Publishing Company (not to be confused with the Company Detroit Publishing), was likely part of a larger series documenting the scenic wonders of America. It is now part of the vast collection at the Library of Congress, a testament to the enduring allure of the natural world and the power of photography to preserve history.
