EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century in America, specifically Fen Lake near Georgetown, Colorado. The exact creator of this mesmerizing image remains unknown, but its historical significance is undeniable. Georgetown was established during the Pikes Peak Gold Rush in 1859, making it a crucial location during that era. The picture is extracted from "A Tour Through the New World America" by Professor Geo. R. Cromwell, published around 1897 by C. N. Greig & Co. , London. It showcases three individuals resting on a serene day at Fen Lake - two men and a lady - all gazing directly at the camera with an air of curiosity and discovery. Surrounded by lush forests and natural beauty, this scene captures not only the geographical features of Clear Creek County but also reflects upon transportation methods prevalent during that time period. A canoe or kayak can be seen nearby as means of travel across the lake. Through this monochrome portrait, we catch a glimpse into American history where exploration and adventure were paramount values for both men and women alike. This print serves as a testament to our nation's past while offering insight into how people enjoyed leisure activities amidst nature's wonders. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate the efforts made by Professor George R. Cromwell to document such moments throughout his travels in America's New World over a century ago.
