EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Sketches in United States" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the American landscape through the eyes of an English artist. The engraving captures a vast panorama that stretches as far as the eye can see. In this scene, we are transported to the majestic Columbia River, surrounded by breathtaking topography and distant views. The Cascade Mountains stand proudly in the background, their peaks reaching towards the heavens. Among them is Mount St Helen, its grandeur commanding attention. The artist's meticulous attention to detail allows us to appreciate not only the natural beauty but also man-made elements that have shaped this land. Railways traverse through valleys and over bridges, symbolizing progress and connectivity in this rapidly developing nation. As we immerse ourselves in this print, it becomes evident that it was created with both artistic flair and a desire for accuracy. Every line tells a story of exploration and discovery during a time when America was still being mapped out. This particular print hails from a private collection but has found its way into Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection thanks to Bridgeman Images. It serves as a reminder of our shared history and invites us to reflect on how much has changed since those early days while marveling at nature's enduring beauty captured within these sketches of United States.
