"Navy Island, St. Laurence" W.H. Bartlett, M. Osborne, ca. 1834 Engraving on wove paper. Is this part of the Navy Islands of the 1000 Islands (near Wellesley Island) in the St. Lawrence River or Navy Island in the Niagara River? Why put "St. Laurence" in the title if in the Niagara River? I suspect that this has been described incorrectly since the mid-19th century as being from the Niagara River. #antiqueengraving #navyislands #1000islands @iowacityart (at Iowa City Art & Antiques) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMqHelknHfl/?igshid=j9alqzqgai9u
