Harry Fenn, a renowned artist and engraver, captured the essence of diverse landscapes and architectural wonders through his intricate works. In 1896, he ventured to Longwood, Napoleon's residence at St. Helena, immersing himself in history as he meticulously depicted its grandeur. Fenn's artistic prowess also led him to Mirror Lake in Yosemite Valley in 1872; under Samuel Valentine Hunt's guidance, he created a masterpiece that mirrored nature's breathtaking beauty. Not limited to natural wonders alone, Fenn delved into urban scenes as well. The Athletic Club at Bowling Green stood tall before him around 1900; with every stroke of his pen or brush, Fenn brought this bustling hub of activity to life. Niagara Falls was another subject that captivated both Fenn and Hunt in 1872; their collaborative efforts resulted in an awe-inspiring portrayal of the falls' majestic power. Fenn's talent extended beyond American shores too. He embarked on a journey to Hebron where Alfred Krausse skillfully engraved his artwork onto paper—an exquisite fusion of cultures preserved for eternity. Harry Fenn returned repeatedly to Niagara Falls throughout his career; each visit allowed him to uncover new perspectives and nuances within this natural wonder. Intrigued by ancient ruins and historical sites alike, Caesarea Philippi (Banias) became one such destination for Harry Fenn—a testament to his insatiable curiosity about the world around him. Meanwhile, back home in America during 1870 along the Ocklawaha River in Florida stood the Cypress-Shingle Yard—a serene scene immortalized by Fenn’s skilled hand. Amongst all these remarkable creations lies The Altar of Baal from 1885—an embodiment of mystery and intrigue expertly crafted by Harry Fenn himself. Lastly but not least is The Giant Geyser—W. J Linton worked alongside Harry Fenn capturing its explosive magnificence in 1872.
