EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored lithograph, titled "Novelty Iron Works, Stillman, Allen & Co. Steam Engine and General Machinery" takes us back to the bustling city of New York in the mid-19th century. The print showcases a remarkable scene at the foot of 12th Street along the East River, where an industrial powerhouse once stood. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the impressive steam engine and general machinery manufactured by Novelty Iron Works. Towering over its surroundings, billows of smoke rise from its chimneys as it tirelessly powers various manufacturing processes within the factory walls. The intricate details captured by artist John Ritto Penniman allow us to marvel at both the engineering prowess and artistic craftsmanship involved in creating such a magnificent piece of machinery. Beyond just showcasing this technological marvel, however, this print also offers a glimpse into everyday life during that era. A ship gracefully glides across the river's calm waters while workers busily go about their tasks on land. The surrounding factories hint at a thriving manufacturing industry that played a crucial role in shaping New York City's growth and prosperity. Preserved within the collection of the New-York Historical Society, this artwork serves as a testament to our rich industrial heritage and invites us to reflect upon how far we have come since those early days of innovation and progress.
