Description
Very attractive woodcut print featuring the architectural features of this upscale enclave of wealthy New Yorkers. The following is a direct quote from the article that accompanied the print:
Tuxedo Park is the most recent addition to the fashionable suburban resorts of New York. About forty miles from the city, in the beautiful lake region of New Jersey, Mr. Pierre Lorillard selected for a park 6000 acres of forest, near the centre of which is a clear lake two miles or more in length, with picturesque scenery about it. The land is undulatory, and within this area there are long stretches of level and steep hills. It is an ideal situation for a pleasure-ground. Mr. Lorillard set about improving it with as great generoisty as the topography required to make it the most attractive resort, perhaps, in the United States.
