Falls of the Blackwater, 1872. Creator: Frederick William Quartley

Falls of the Blackwater, 1872. Waterfalls in West Virginia, USA: Just below us flows the famous Blackwater through an awful rift nearly two thousand feet in depth...This is the land of water-falls...Now it is deliciously refreshing to breathe this atmosphere of whirling spray, to witness the wild gambols of these frisky streams, to hear the chorus of their thousand voices, from the tinkling treble of the tiny rill to the thundering bass of the distant river...The first leap made by the Skillet Fork is forty feet in the clear, and thence without a halt she goes plunging down a break-neck stairway, with a descent of some four or five hundred feet in half a miles distance, where she joins the main stream of Blackwater. 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 titled "Falls of the Blackwater, 1872" by Frederick William Quartley takes us on a visual journey to the enchanting waterfalls in West Virginia, USA. The image captures the awe-inspiring beauty of the famous Blackwater as it flows through a breathtaking rift that plunges nearly two thousand feet in depth. Immersed in this picturesque landscape, we are invited to witness nature's playful spectacle. The frisky streams dance and whirl with exuberance, filling the air with a refreshing misty spray. As we stand at the edge of this natural wonder, we are serenaded by a symphony of sounds - from the delicate tinkling treble of tiny rills to the thunderous bass notes emanating from afar. The Skillet Fork commands our attention as it embarks on its first leap, gracefully descending forty feet before hurtling down an exhilarating break-neck stairway. In just half a mile's distance, this daring stream plummets four or five hundred feet until it merges with the mighty Blackwater below. Frederick William Quartley skillfully captures this mesmerizing scene through his lens and invites us to revel in its grandeur. This remarkable photograph is part of "Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In" edited by William Cullen Bryant and published in 1872. It serves as both a testament to Quartley's artistic prowess and an enduring tribute to one of nature's most magnificent creations - Falls of the Blackwater.
