Castellated Rock, 1872. Creator: John Filmer
Castellated Rock, 1872. Rock formation in Northern California, USA: a range of granite and limestone rocks, which attains an elevation from the plain of three thousand feet, and is broken into a multitude of ragged forms...The granite...relieves the dazzling white of the limestone. When the sun shines upon the latter, the observer can hardly tell it from marble, so brilliant is its snowy hue. The line of these singular hills is of considerable length, extending, indeed, along the whole valley of the Pitt...their appearance is finely castellated...the shrill scream of the bald-eagle is heard from the loftiest and most inaccessible peaks, where these birds build their eyries...the glare of the noonday sun, falling upon these peaks of snowy limestone that rear themselves upward...like a huge ice-wall...is positively blinding. 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. I, edited by William Cullen Bryant. [D. Appleton and Company, New York, 1872]

Castellated Rock, 1872 - A Majestic Display of Nature's Artistry
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print by John Filmer showcases the awe-inspiring beauty of Castellated Rock, a remarkable rock formation nestled in Northern California, USA. Standing tall at an impressive elevation of three thousand feet above the plain, this range of granite and limestone rocks is a sight to behold. The photograph captures the ruggedness and intricacy of these rocks as they are broken into countless ragged forms. The contrast between the dazzling white limestone and the sturdy granite creates a stunning visual spectacle. When illuminated by sunlight, the snowy hue of the limestone resembles glistening marble. Stretching along the entire valley of Pitt for a considerable length, these singular hills possess a finely castellated appearance reminiscent of ancient fortresses. As you stand in their presence, you may hear the shrill scream of bald eagles echoing from their lofty peaks where they build their nests. In particular, when noonday sun rays strike these towering peaks made entirely out of snowy limestone, it creates an almost blinding glare that leaves observers mesmerized. This natural phenomenon evokes imagery akin to an immense ice-wall rising towards the heavens. John Filmer's masterful capture immortalizes this breathtaking landscape from "Picturesque America; or The Land We Live In" edited by William Cullen Bryant in 1872. It serves as a testament to nature's extraordinary artistry and reminds us how small we are compared to its grandeur.
