EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Cumberland Gap, from Eagle Cliff, 1872" by Harry Fenn takes us back to the rugged beauty of the Appalachian Mountains in the 19th century. The image showcases a breathtaking view of the Cumberland Gap, a pass nestled between Kentucky and Virginia in the United States. As we gaze upon this engraving, our eyes are drawn to the winding mountain road that cuts through the majestic landscape. Covered wagons can be seen traversing this treacherous path, highlighting the challenges faced by early settlers as they ventured into uncharted territories. Fenn's artistic prowess is evident in his meticulous attention to detail. Every tree and plant seems to come alive on paper, transporting us into a wilderness untouched by modern civilization. The remote location depicted here evokes a sense of awe and wonder at nature's grandeur. The print is part of "Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In" edited by William Cullen Bryant. This literary work aimed to capture America's diverse landscapes through pen and pencil illustrations created by esteemed American artists like Fenn. Through this photograph print, Fenn invites us to appreciate not only the physical beauty of Cumberland Gap but also its historical significance as an important passage for westward expansion in America. It serves as a reminder of our country's rich heritage and untamed spirit that shaped its development over centuries past.
