EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Pike's Peak Avenue, Colorado Springs, Colorado, c1898," is an enchanting glimpse into the past of Colorado Springs, Colorado. Taken by the renowned photographer William H. Jackson, this image transports us back to the late 19th century, a time of exploration and discovery in the American West. The photograph showcases Pike's Peak Avenue, a tree-lined thoroughfare that once served as the main approach to Colorado Springs. The avenue is named after the famous Pike's Peak, a 14,115-foot mountain located in El Paso County, Colorado, which has long been a source of fascination and inspiration for travelers and settlers alike. The scene is bathed in the soft, muted tones of a winter's day. Snow-capped trees line the avenue, their branches reaching out like welcoming arms to the traveler. The road, though still passable, is dotted with patches of snow, adding to the sense of adventure and the challenges of frontier life. In the distance, the majestic mountains rise up, their peaks shrouded in a light mist. The mountain range, with its rugged terrain and breathtaking vistas, has long been a symbol of the natural beauty and grandeur of the American West. This photograph, part of the collection of the Library of Congress, is a testament to the rich heritage and history of Colorado and the United States. It invites us to reflect on the past, to appreciate the natural wonders of our country, and to marvel at the progress and development that has taken place over the past century.
