• DESCRIPTION: Drawn and lithographed by Geo. Haywood. <br><br> Issued around 1848 in D. T. Valentine’s Manual of the Corporation of the City of New York, Park Fountain, New York is a finely engraved city view depicting the elegant fountain in City Hall Park. The Valentine’s Manuals, published annually from 1841 to 1866, served as illustrated almanacs and civic records, preserving detailed images of New York’s architecture, public spaces, and street life during a period of rapid growth. This particular print captures the refined urban landscaping and civic pride of mid-19th-century Manhattan, showing the fountain as a fashionable public gathering spot framed by surrounding buildings. Today, it is valued both for its charm and for its role as a primary visual source documenting New York City before the Civil War.
