EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant print captures the essence of Key West, Florida in the 1940s. The image showcases the new highway that was built over the old Florida East Coast Railway viaducts, symbolizing progress and modernization. Against a backdrop of bright blue skies and sparkling waters, a rowing boat glides peacefully on Tampa Bay, adding to the picturesque scene. In this bustling outdoor setting, men can be seen going about their daily activities. A confident gentleman stands near an orange-colored motorway bridge, exuding a sense of pride for his city's development. The color palette is rich and inviting; from the vivid orange hues to the striking yellow boats dotting the bay. The postcard-like composition transports viewers back in time to experience Key West's charm during this era. The lettering on the print adds a touch of nostalgia while also serving as a testament to America's postal service heritage. This lithograph by Tichnor Quality Views perfectly encapsulates mid-20th century America with its attention to detail and perspective. It serves as both a travel memento and historical artifact, capturing an important moment in Key West's history when transportation played a vital role in connecting communities across Florida. Overall, this print invites us to appreciate not only Key West's natural beauty but also its progress as it embraced new modes of transport and communication during this transformative period in American history.
