The Sky Line of New York, as the title puts it, was seen from the water: the vantage point of the Hudson River, where arriving ships once brought travelers face to face with the growing skyline of Lower and Midtown Manhattan. Views like this one, taken from the river, were a favorite of photographers and printmakers in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when new steel-framed towers were changing the city's profile almost by the year. Panoramic pictures of this kind were valued for capturing the scale of the city at a single glance, and the river frame reminds viewers that New York's identity was tied to its harbor and shipping as much as to its streets.
