'Philadephia, from Below the New South-Street-Bridge', 1874. Creator: Alfred Harral
'Philadephia, from Below the New South-Street-Bridge', 1874. Cargo boats on the Schuylkill River at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. 'the largest vessels..., their tapering masts and graceful yards presenting a picture which, in a bright, sunny day, might have won the admiration and employed the pencil of Turner. The scene at this point is usually a busy one. Noisy steam-tugs, light sail-boats, scows, canal-boats, and other kinds of craft, crowd the stream, and impart that life and vivacity peculiar to the water-front of a flourishing commercial city'. From "Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In, A Delineation by Pen and Pencil of the Mountains, Rivers, Lakes...with Illustrations on Steel and Wood by Eminent American Artists" Vol. II, edited by William Cullen Bryant. [D. Appleton and Company, New York, 1874]
