EDITORS COMMENTS
Minnehaha Falls, Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA (1935): A Captivating Moment in Time, as Depicted in Longfellow's "Hiawatha" Minnehaha Falls, a breathtaking natural wonder nestled in the heart of Minneapolis, Minnesota, has been captivating visitors since long before the 1930s. This enchanting scene, captured in a black-and-white photograph from 1935, showcases the beauty and power of the falls as they cascade gracefully over limestone cliffs, surrounded by lush trees, shrubs, and bushes. The tranquil blue waters at the base of the falls create a serene reflection, while the white foam at the water's edge adds a playful touch. This image brings to mind the famous lines from Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's narrative poem, "Hiawatha," published in 1855. The passage reads, "Then from the forest glades, where Minnehaha plays, Comes the clear voice of the Minnetonka maid, Singing her wild, sweet songs of love and joy, As Hiawatha listens, and smiles to hear." Longfellow's poetic words evoke the sense of peace and wonder that can be found in the presence of such a stunning natural wonder. The photograph, taken in the 1930s, offers a glimpse into a bygone era, transporting us back in time to a moment when the world seemed to move more slowly, and the beauty of nature held a special allure. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the enduring power of literature and poetry to inspire and captivate our imaginations, and to help us connect with the natural world around us.
