EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back in time to Lawrence, Kansas, in the year 1857. The image showcases a bustling scene of this young American town during its formative years. Created by an English School artist from the 19th century, this print offers a glimpse into the past with remarkable detail and historical significance. Lawrence, Kansas, emerges as a vibrant settlement on the banks of the Kansas River. The town's growth is evident through its expanding streets lined with wooden buildings and horse-drawn carriages traversing along them. People can be seen going about their daily lives - merchants attending to their shops, families strolling down the sidewalks, and workers engaged in various activities. The engraving was originally featured in "A Pictorial History of the World's Great Nations" by Charlotte M Yonge around 1880. This digitally cleaned version allows us to appreciate every intricate line and shading technique used by the artist. As we gaze upon this piece of history captured within a single frame, it serves as a reminder of how far Lawrence has come since its early days. It invites us to reflect on our own connection to place and time while appreciating both our shared heritage and individual journeys that have shaped our present-day community.
