Summary

An American flag is flown on one of the steamboats. Some architecture can be seen to the left, and the Mississippi River is in the background. "St. Louis Levee" is inscribed along the bottom edge of the daguerreotype.
By 1849, 600 steamboats were operating out of St. Louis and along the levee commercial district, over 400 wholesale houses were in operation. During the early part of the 19th century the levee was home to St. Louis’s main commercial enterprises, primarily along First and Levee, between Market and Vine Streets. By the 1840’s the levee ran from Market Street to Washington Avenue, ending in a district known as Battle Row, a tenement district, housing mostly Irish immigrants.Title: St. Louis Levee in 1852.
An excellent example of GetArchive image recognition capabilities - is quite a large Fishing Boat collection. A fishing boat is a marine vessel designed specifically for fishers.

Set of images depicting various harbors, ports, and piers together with ships, fishing and sailing boats, and all types of haven-like places and views. All large image sets on Picryl.com are made in two steps: First, we picked a set to train AI vision to recognize the feature, and after that, we ran all 25M+ images in our database through an image recognition machine. As usual, all media in the collection belong to the public domain. There is no limitation on the dataset usage - educational, scientific, or commercial.
