EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Bridal Veil Fall in Yosemite, California, circa 1897. The image was captured by an unknown creator and is part of the collection "A Tour Through the New World America" by Professor George R. Cromwell.

The photograph beautifully captures this natural wonder, with water cascading down a precipice amidst towering rocks and a rugged landscape. The image transports us back to the late 19th century, offering a glimpse into America's rich history and natural beauty. It evokes a sense of discovery and awe that early explorers must have felt when encountering such breathtaking scenery for the first time.
