EDITORS COMMENTS
This lantern slide image transports us back in time to the early 1900s, as we gaze upon the breathtaking scene of the Humber River in Newfoundland, Canada. The USA connection comes from the provenance of this photograph, which is part of the Boswell collection in Box 160 of Modern New York, held at Mary Evans Prints Online. The image showcases the pristine and untouched beauty of nature, with the crystal-clear waters of the Humber River reflecting the vibrant blue sky above. The lush, green foliage surrounding the riverbank adds a sense of serenity and tranquility to the scene. The river, which flows into the Atlantic Ocean, is the longest on the island of Newfoundland and is known for its rich fishing grounds. The lantern slide format of this photograph was a popular method of projecting images during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The use of lantern slides allowed for the projection of high-quality images onto a screen or wall, making them a popular choice for educational and entertainment purposes. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a window into a time when the natural world was still largely untouched by the advancements of modern civilization. It serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving the beauty and wonder of our natural surroundings for future generations to enjoy.
