Bowlder Canon, 1874. Creator: W. J. Linton
Bowlder Canon, 1874. The Colorado River flowing through Boulder Canyon, (originally Devils Gate Canyon), between Nevada and Arizona, USA....we enter the Bowlder Canon, cut deep in the metamorphic rocks of foot-hills for seventeen miles, with walls of solid rock that rise precipitously to a height of three thousand feet in many places. A bubbling stream rushes down the centre, broken in its course by clumsy-looking rocks, and the fallen limbs of trees that have been wrenched from the sparse soil and moss in the crevices. The water is discolored and thick. 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. II, edited by William Cullen Bryant. [D. Appleton and Company, New York, 1874]

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Bowlder Canon, 1874" takes us on a visual journey through the rugged beauty of Boulder Canyon. Created by W. J. Linton as part of the renowned book "Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In" this image transports us to the untamed landscapes between Nevada and Arizona in the United States. As we gaze upon this scene, we are immediately struck by the sheer magnificence of nature's power. The Colorado River flows relentlessly through the canyon, carving its way through metamorphic rocks for seventeen miles. Towering walls of solid rock rise dramatically to staggering heights of three thousand feet in some places. The rushing stream at the center adds an element of dynamism to this picturesque setting. Its bubbling waters cascade over clumsy-looking rocks and fallen tree limbs that bear witness to nature's relentless force. The water itself appears discolored and thick, hinting at hidden mysteries beneath its surface. W. J. Linton masterfully captures both the grandeur and serenity found within Bowlder Canon with his intricate engraving technique. Every detail is meticulously etched onto paper, allowing us to appreciate not only the vastness but also the delicate nuances present in this remote location. Through Linton's artistry, we are transported back in time to experience a moment frozen forever - a testament to both human creativity and nature's awe-inspiring wonders captured within these pages from Heritage Images' collection.
