Created in 1911 using watercolor and ink on paper, this print captures the essence of King's artistic style. In this scene, we see a picturesque river flowing gently beneath an elegant bridge. A charming boat glides along the tranquil waters, adding a touch of movement to the composition. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, as she expertly portrays the textures and colors of both land and water. "The Book of Bridges" serves as a testament to mankind's ingenuity in constructing these architectural marvels that connect communities and facilitate transportation.
