EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1859, capturing a significant moment in history. The image showcases Garrison Ferry, which served as a vital transportation link across the majestic Hudson River between Garrison and West Point in New York State. Photographed by William England of the London Stereoscopic Company, this portrait-style shot beautifully frames a charming house nestled amidst towering trees near the landing stage. A small vessel or boat can be seen docked at the ferry, waiting to transport passengers across the river. The absence of people in this image allows us to focus on the serene landscape and appreciate its natural beauty. The tranquil river flows gracefully beneath an expansive sky, creating a sense of calmness and tranquility. This archival photograph not only captures a snapshot of daily life during that era but also provides insight into the importance of water transportation for connecting communities. It offers viewers a glimpse into historical architecture, showcasing barracks and other structures that were part of West Point's rich heritage. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Fine Art Storehouse's collection, we are transported back in time to witness an essential mode of transportation that played a crucial role in shaping New York State's history.
