EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the breathtaking beauty of Profile Lake and the Old Man of the Mountain in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, United States, between 1900 and 1920. The image, measuring 8 x 10 inches, captures the serene atmosphere of the lake with its calm, mirror-like surface reflecting the surrounding mountains and the iconic rock formation of the Old Man of the Mountain. Two rowboats are anchored at the waterfront, adding a sense of tranquility and isolation to the scene. The Old Man of the Mountain, a natural granite profile resembling a human face, stands proudly atop Profile Mountain, overlooking the lake and the picturesque landscape below. The mountain range in the background adds depth and dimension to the image, while the clear blue sky completes the idyllic picture. The photograph is believed to have been taken during the early 1900s to the 1920s, based on the era's clothing and transportation methods depicted in the image. The use of a dry plate or glass negative process adds to the photograph's historical significance, as this technique was popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This photograph is a testament to the natural beauty and heritage of New Hampshire and the United States, and serves as a reminder of the simple pleasures of a bygone era. The image is part of the extensive collection of the Library of Congress, a treasure trove of historical and cultural resources for researchers, scholars, and enthusiasts alike.
