Description: Bryant1_264 1872 Bryant print SOUTHWEST PASS, MISSISSIPPI DELTA, LOUISIANA (#264) Nice view titled Southwest Pass, from wood engraving with fine detail and clear impression, nice hand coloring, approx. page size is 24 x 20.5 cm, approx. image size is 17 x 16 cm. From William Cullen Bryant's Picturesque America, published by D. Appleton & Co., New York. William Cullen Bryant (1794-1878), the distinguished American poet and editor, practised law until 1825 when he switched avocations and became editor and finally owner of the "Evening Post". In 1872 he edited "Picturesque America" and was responsible for choosing artists rather than photographers to interpret the beauty of America. This beautifully executed steelplate engraving, exemplifies the high point of 19th century intaglio printing and is a testament to William Cullen Bryant's genius. Southwest Pass (Mississippi River) Southwest Pass is one of the channels at the mouth of the Mississippi River. It empties into the Gulf of Mexico at the southwesternmost tip of the Mississippi River Delta. It lies in Plaquemines Parish in southeastern Louisiana in the United States. It has been the main shipping channel in the Mississippi River Delta since 1853. Southwest Pass should not confused with a strait in Vermilion Parish, Louisiana, also known as Southwest Pass.
