A gorgeous day at Bethesda Fountain

Rowing in Central Park's lake and gathering on Bethesda Terrace appear to have been as popular 100 years ago as they are today. The fountain, unveiled in 1873, is topped by a sculpture called "Angel of the Waters," by Emma Stebbins. She was the first woman commissioned to create art in a city park.
