The American Fall, the smaller of the two cataracts that make up Niagara Falls, is seen here from Goat Island, the wooded island that divides the river's crest and gives visitors a close view of the water pouring over the rocky lip. Goat Island was the first part of the Niagara area to be set aside for public use, and the park around it grew into one of the earliest state reservations in the country. The falls drew travelers, painters and photographers throughout the 19th century, and this scene shows how the cascade and its surrounding woods attracted those visitors to the edge of the gorge.
