Fireworks over the River, 1890

Comments - Charming design of a fireworks display over the river. In the center, pinwheels spin on a small boat as a shell launches into the air, bursting into a shower of sparks. The water is crowded with pleasure boats and the bridge is filled with people enjoying the cool evening air. An interesting look at this favorite summer pastime.
