Dalles of the Wisconsin, The Jaws. 1874. Creator: John Filmer
Dalles of the Wisconsin, " The Jaws". 1874. Tourists visit an unusual rock formation on the Dells of the Wisconsin River, Wisconsin, USA. At the Jaws we move from one spot which we think the most lovely to another that excels, and on through inexhaustible beauties, in a state of unalloyed rapture. There is as much " life" in the Dalles as the most sociable of tourists could desire. On fine days in the summer the water is skimmed by pleasure-barges and row-boats, filled with gayly-dressed people from neighboring towns. From " Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In, A Delineation by Pen and Pencil of the Mountains, Rivers, Lakes...with Illustrations on Steel and Wood by Eminent American Artists" Vol. II, edited by William Cullen Bryant. [D. Appleton and Company, New York, 1874]

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Dalles of the Wisconsin, The Jaws" takes us back to 1874 when tourists flocked to witness the extraordinary rock formation on the Dells of the Wisconsin River in Wisconsin, USA. Captured by John Filmer, this image showcases nature's artistry at its finest. As we gaze upon it, we are transported to a world filled with inexhaustible beauty and unalloyed rapture. The Jaws is a spot that leaves visitors awe-struck as they move from one picturesque location to another, each surpassing the previous in loveliness. In this enchanting place, life thrives abundantly just as any sociable tourist would desire. During summer days blessed with fine weather, pleasure-barges and row-boats skim across the water carrying joyous individuals adorned in vibrant attire from nearby towns. This lively scene adds an extra touch of charm to an already mesmerizing landscape. This remarkable print is part of "Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In" edited by William Cullen Bryant and published by D. Appleton and Company in New York. It forms a testament to Alfred Rudolph Waud's exceptional artistic skills as he beautifully illustrated America's mountains, rivers, lakes, and more. As we admire this piece from Heritage Images today, let us appreciate both the natural wonders captured within it and our ability to travel through time via such evocative imagery.
