EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Riverside, 1896 June 22," was captured by the skilled lens of Johns Johnston on this particular date in the late 19th century. The image, a dry plate negative measuring 8 x 10 inches, depicts a serene scene along the shores of a tranquil body of water. Several men, dressed in the fashion of the era, are seen engaging in leisurely activities. One man lies down on the grass, seemingly enjoying the warmth of the sun, while others prepare to set sail. Boats of various sizes, including sailboats and a yacht, are anchored along the shoreline. The Detroit Publishing Company, known for its publication of high-quality images of American scenes, later acquired and distributed this photograph as part of their extensive collection. The geographical feature in the background is not immediately identifiable, but the image offers a glimpse into the pastime of sailing, a popular activity during this time in American history. The men in the photograph, dressed in white and black, exude a sense of relaxation and enjoyment. The sailboats, with their sails hoisted, add a dynamic element to the otherwise still scene. The image, now held in the Library of Congress, serves as a reminder of the simple pleasures and pastimes of the past. This photograph, taken by Johns Johnston on June 22, 1896, is a testament to the heritage and history of America during the 1890s.
