EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of Newport, Rhode Island's iconic landmark - The Casino. Taken by an American photographer in the 19th century, this image showcases the architectural beauty and historical significance of this renowned establishment. The Casino was not a gambling hall as its name might suggest, but rather a luxurious resort that epitomized wealth and opulence. It served as a hub for social gatherings, entertainment, and leisure activities during Newport's golden age. In this snapshot from a souvenir booklet dating back to around 1900, we can observe the early automobiles parked outside The Casino. These vehicles provide us with a glimpse into the evolving transportation landscape of that era. Newport itself holds immense historical importance in America's narrative. As one of the wealthiest cities in the United States at that time, it attracted affluent individuals seeking refuge from bustling city life. This photo encapsulates both the allure of Newport as a resort town and its association with prosperity. With its rich history and picturesque views like those captured here, Newport continues to be an enchanting destination for visitors today. This photograph serves as a reminder of how far we have come while also preserving memories of an era defined by elegance and sophistication.
