At the Fox River Lock
Image
View across water towards a motor launch with striped canopy moored along the shore just above the Fox River Lock on Buffalo Lake. A finely dressed party of two men, several women and children pose aboard the boat. The boat name is painted on the front right: "El Modelo." There are two men on the shore in the background; the railing of the bridge over the lock is in the far background. The caption reads: "Approaching the Fox River Locks, Montello, Wis."
1905
