"NEW YORK: QUARANTINE, 1793. Proclamation issued by Governor George Clinton of New York in response to the yellow fever epidemic in Philadelphia, requiring all vessels arriving from that city to be quarantined at Bedloes Island, 13 September 1793) (1793, american, bedloes island, carousel collection, clinton, declaration, epidemic, excelsior, george, governor. . ". This print captures a significant moment in history when Governor George Clinton of New York took decisive action during the yellow fever outbreak in Philadelphia. In this proclamation issued on September 13th, 1793 – a true testament to his commitment to public health and safety – all ships arriving from the infected city were required to undergo quarantine at Bedloes Island. The image showcases an authentic handbill with its striking typeface and official seal. It serves as a powerful reminder of the measures taken during times of infectious outbreaks centuries ago. The late 18th-century setting adds depth and historical context to this piece. As we reflect on this photograph today amidst our own global health challenges and transportation concerns due to COVID-19 pandemic restrictions worldwide - it is fascinating how similar themes resonate across time. This artwork reminds us that even though technology has advanced significantly since then; human responses towards safeguarding public health have remained constant throughout history. Granger Art on Demand's Carousel Collection continues its mission of preserving important moments like these for future generations. This print allows us not only
