Night-Fall, St. Thomass Church, New York, c. 1835
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that transports us back to the enchanting streets of Manhattan in the 19th century. As dusk settles over the city, George Harvey's masterful watercolor on paper captures the ethereal beauty of this iconic Gothic church. In this scene, gas street lamps flicker to life as a lamp lighter goes about his nightly ritual. The warm glow from these lamps casts an inviting light onto the cobblestone streets below. A horse-drawn carriage passes by, its occupants seemingly oblivious to the tranquility and serenity that surrounds them. The artist skillfully portrays every intricate detail - from the architectural grandeur of St. Thomass Church with its towering spires reaching towards the heavens, to the majestic horses pulling carriages along Broadway Avenue. The painting exudes a sense of calmness and nostalgia for a bygone era. Harvey's work not only showcases his technical prowess but also serves as a testament to American history and culture during this period. It reminds us of simpler times when gas lamps illuminated our cities and horse-drawn carriages were still a common sight. This print is not just an exquisite piece of art; it is also a window into our past – an opportunity to reflect on how far we have come while cherishing our rich heritage.
