EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the early days of Baltimore, Maryland in 1730. The image showcases Philip Jones, a skilled city planner and surveyor, meticulously laying out the foundations of this historic city. With his tools in hand, he carefully maps out the streets and structures that would shape Baltimore's future. In this engraving from 1880, we witness a pivotal moment in American history as colonial settlers begin to establish their presence on Native American lands. The collaboration between colonists and indigenous peoples is hinted at by the inclusion of an Indian woman standing nearby. This serves as a reminder of the complex interactions that shaped our nation's development. The scene exudes a sense of ambition and determination as these men work tirelessly to create order amidst untamed wilderness. Their efforts would pave the way for Baltimore's growth into one of America's most vibrant cities. Through this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the founding moments of Baltimore - a testament to human ingenuity and resilience. It reminds us that every great city has humble beginnings rooted in careful planning and unwavering dedication. Granger Art on Demand brings us this remarkable piece from their collection, allowing us to appreciate both its historical significance and artistic beauty.
