Cyanotype 1857 1922 Arthur Wesley Dow
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the charming City Island, New York, circa 1900. The creator of this mesmerizing piece is none other than Arthur Wesley Dow, an esteemed American artist who lived from 1857 to 1922. Known for his exceptional talent and unique artistic style, Dow beautifully captures the essence of this quaint island community. The cyanotype technique used in this print adds a touch of ethereal beauty to the scene. The deep blue hues evoke a sense of nostalgia and transport us to a bygone era when life was simpler and slower-paced. As we gaze upon the image, we can almost feel the gentle sea breeze on our faces and hear the distant sounds of seagulls soaring above. City Island itself appears as if frozen in time - rows of picturesque houses line its streets while sailboats dotting the harbor create a serene backdrop against which daily life unfolds. This snapshot offers a glimpse into an era where fishing played a vital role in shaping both livelihoods and culture on this small island oasis. Preserved with utmost care by Heritage Art/Heritage Images, this print serves as not just an exquisite work of art but also as a valuable historical document that allows us to appreciate City Island's rich heritage. Let it serve as a reminder that even amidst modernity's relentless march forward, there are places like City Island that continue to hold onto their timeless charm.
