EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Mountain Island, 1872" takes us back to the breathtaking landscapes of 19th century America. Created by Frederick William Quartley, a renowned American artist, this piece is part of the iconic book "Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In". Edited by the esteemed William Cullen Bryant and published by D. Appleton and Company in New York in 1872. The scene depicted showcases the powerful Rapids on the French Broad River in North Carolina, USA. Quartley's masterful wood engraving brings to life the rugged beauty of this geographical feature. The rushing water cascades over rocks with great force as driftwood floats along its course. Surrounding it all is an untouched wilderness that stretches as far as the eye can see. With his keen attention to detail and skillful use of light and shadow, Quartley transports viewers into this untamed landscape. Every stroke captures both the grandeur and tranquility found within these mountains. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork today, we are reminded of a time when nature reigned supreme in our country's vast expanses. It serves as a testament to both Quartley's artistic prowess and America's enduring love affair with its natural wonders.
