Mill On Jones Falls And Jones Falls Park Scenes Baltimore Maryland 1872
This original 1872 wood engraving illustrates Mill on Jones’s Falls, a tranquil view along Jones Falls just north of downtown Baltimore, Maryland. Calm water reflects dense trees and early industrial buildings set back from the stream, capturing the balance between nature and manufacturing that defined this important corridor. Jones Falls powered numerous mills during the 19th century and played a key role in Baltimore’s early growth and infrastructure.
On the reverse is a second engraving titled Jones’s Falls, presenting a more natural scene of rocky ledges, flowing water, and wooded banks within what later became part of Baltimore’s park landscape. The low cascade and scattered boulders emphasize the stream’s rugged character before heavy urban development. Published in Picturesque America, these companion engravings together portray Jones Falls as both a working waterway and a place of scenic retreat within Maryland’s largest city.The print measures approximately 7.5 x 7.75 inches.
