Scene in St. Augustine - The Date Palm, 1872
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the enchanting streets of St. Augustine, Florida in the late 19th century. In this picturesque scene, captured by John J. Harley and featured in "Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In" we are transported to a quaint backyard bursting with life. A majestic date palm tree stands tall at the center of the composition, its lush fronds reaching towards the sky. Surrounding it are barrels filled with hay and a charming kennel where a dog is chained, ever watchful over his domain. Chickens roam freely amidst this idyllic setting, pecking at scattered grains on the ground while birds flutter above them. It's a harmonious coexistence between humans and animals that speaks volumes about rural life during that era. The meticulous wood engraving technique used by Harry Fenn beautifully captures every intricate detail of this scene – from the texture of each leaf on the palm tree to the expressions on both human and animal faces. As we gaze upon this image frozen in time, we can almost feel ourselves stepping into that very backyard – breathing in the fragrant air filled with nature's symphony and basking in Florida's warm sunlight. This print serves as a testament to not only John J. Harley's artistic talent but also as an invaluable historical document showcasing everyday life in St. Augustine during one of America's most transformative periods.
