"Genesee Falls near Portage NY"

1850's

We don't know the artist or original source of this small colored image of the Middle Falls area, but it is also labeled "View of the Middle Falls from the West Bank." (This was actually incorrect - the artist was standing on the EAST bank and drawing the WEST bank.)

The view goes well with the early stereoview that is Image 1 of our historic photo album. They both show the mills and other structures that once stood at the Falls.
