Abstract:

The Museum of Early Southern Decorative Arts in Winston-Salem, North Carolina recently acquired three prints of Virginia scenery, including Natural Bridge, the Potomac River, and Harper’s Ferry. These pieces provide insight into the process by which landscape prints were produced and the artistic selection of topographical views during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.
