Item Description
This is a four-part panoramic silver print of Rocky Neck in Gloucester, made in 1905 by renowned marine photographer Henry G. Peabody. The original photo from which this was made was in Peabody's own sample collection. The picture was taken from the hill overlooking Eastern Ave. in Gloucester with the Wonson and Gorton Pew wharves and fish flakes in the foreground, Rocky Neck and various vessels beyond them, and a long stretch of Gloucester harbor in the background. The level of detail is amazing. This image is an archival gicle print on acid free Photo Lustre paper, made from a high resolution digital capture (6000 lines per inch) of the original panorama. Image size is 51 x 10 inches. Shrinkwrapped on foam core.
