Description: You are bidding on the item listed in the title!This was published in AMERICAN SCENERY By WH BartlettThe following is a bio on Bartlett by Pine OrchardWilliam H. BartlettBorn in England, William H. Bartlett (1809 – 1854) was apprenticed at the age of thirteen and first made his name as an illustrator with drawings of Swiss scenes. In 1836 he was engaged by the London publisher George Virtue to travel to the USA and provide sketches for the publication of American Scenery issued in January 1840. He traveled through New England, the Hudson Valley, Niagara, and south to Washington and the Natural Bridge in Virginia. So that his views could be accurately engraved his finely detailed drawings were made to the same scale as the engraving. His charming landscape and city views, often incorporating people and animals into the landscape, retained their popularity through the century and were used in publications as late as the 1880s. I have purchased a large collection of Ephemera including some Bird Lithos and these prints as published in 1800's periodicals, books and other mediums. I am not an expert on these types of items so I will describe them as best I can and will be starting them all at below market level prices as researched to give great value to the purchaser and let the market determine values.All of my items show some signs of use/age. Some show signs of being previously archived as evident by the writing on the edges. The piece pictured is the piece you will receive! All items will be sent USPS mail, with confirmation. I will discount shipping with multiple auction wins. Please check my other items for amazing hard to find items. Feel free to ask any questions.
