Description
Scenes in Central Park', 1874. Vignettes of horse-and-carriage rides, the boating lake, the bandstand, and ice-skating, New York City, USA. '...its size is not insignificant, numbering eight hundred and forty-three acres; while, in its union of art with Nature, its many bridges of quaint design, its Italian-like terrace, its towers and rustic houses, its boat-covered lakes, its secluded rambles and picturesque nooks, its wide walks and promenades, it is unapproached in this country and unexcelled abroad...Its superb drives are thronged with vehicles, while all its paths are occupied on summer afternoons by immense numbers of the people'. From "Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In, A Delineation by Pen and Pencil of the Mountains, Rivers, Lakes...with Illustrations on Steel and Wood by Eminent American . Artists" Vol. II, edited by William Cullen Bryant. [D. Appleton and Company, New York, 1874]. Artist Unknown. (Photo by The Print Collector/Heritage Images via Getty Images)
