EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving from the 19th century showcases the bustling Buffalo Iron & Nail Works in Buffalo, New York. The print offers a glimpse into the industrial landscape of America's past, capturing the exterior view of this significant plant. The image portrays a scene filled with activity and energy, as workers toil away on various tasks within the building. The composition highlights the proximity of this iron and nail works to both maritime and river transportation routes. A steamboat can be seen docked by the water front, symbolizing the vital role that rivers played in facilitating trade and commerce during this era. The presence of smokestacks billowing out thick plumes of smoke hints at both progress and pollution - a reminder of how industrialization brought about its own set of challenges.
