Cathedral Rock, 1872. Creator: William Ludwell Sheppard
Cathedral Rock, 1872. Rock formation reminiscent of a cathedral, West Virginia, USA: a vast minster of the Gothic ages...There is the grand portal, with its pointed arch, from whose shadowy recesses we may presently expect to hear the organ pealing, and the anthem of chanting priests. There is the heaven-piercing spire, with its pinnacles, finials, turrets, traceries...There too, sharply traced by sunlight and shadow, are the Gothic oriels and double-arched windows, suggestive of stained-glass pictures. 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]

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Cathedral Rock in all its glory. Taken in 1872 by William Ludwell Sheppard, this image showcases a rock formation that bears an uncanny resemblance to a grand cathedral from the Gothic ages. Located in West Virginia, USA, Cathedral Rock stands tall like a vast minster, evoking a sense of awe and wonder. The photograph beautifully highlights the intricate details of this natural masterpiece. The grand portal with its pointed arch seems to beckon us into its shadowy recesses, as if expecting to hear the resounding peal of an organ and the melodic chants of priests. The heaven-piercing spire adorned with pinnacles, finials, turrets, and traceries reaches towards the sky with grace and elegance. Sheppard's skillful use of light and shadow accentuates every aspect of this geological marvel. The gothic oriels and double-arched windows are sharply traced by sunlight, reminiscent of stained-glass pictures found within cathedrals. This print is part of "Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In" edited by William Cullen Bryant in 1872. It offers viewers a glimpse into not only the natural beauty but also the artistic prowess that existed during America's nineteenth century. Cathedral Rock remains an enduring tourist attraction even today due to its unique resemblance to architectural wonders built by human hands. This extraordinary image serves as a testament to nature's ability to inspire awe-inspiring creations that rival those crafted by mankind throughout history.
