About this artwork

Text printed on reverse of stereocard:

HOME.
There is a land, of every land the pride,

Beloved by Heaven o’er all the world beside;

Where brighter suns dispense serener light,

And milder moons imparadise the night.
Where shall that land, that spot of earth be found?

Art thou a man, a patriot? Look around!

Oh! thou shalt find howe’er thy footsteps roam,

That land thy country, and that spot thy home.

–James Montgomery.
