Print, color: Hudson River from Hoboken. As published in D. T. Valentine's Manual, New York, 1860.
Lithographed color plate as removed from publication at unknown date; 3-3/4" high x 6" wide (print is not original size; trimmed.) Artist / engraver not identified. Dampstain visible in lower left quadrant. Reverse shows stain from mounting adhesive; several penciled notes in varying hands, mostly numerals.
See archives 2014.015.0006 for a duo-tone color version (untrimmed) of this published engraving.
An artist's bird's-eye view of the River looking north from what would be about Fifth to Sixth Streets in modern times. Hoboken at the left shows River Walk (later River Road and now Frank Sinatra Drive) and Castle Point. (Sybil's Cave is not seen; it would have been around the bend on the path where the three people are shown.)
