Rocks in Smugglers Notch, 1874. Creator: Harry Fenn
Rocks in Smugglers Notch, 1874. Rock formation in Vermont, USA....the abundant moisture has filled it with superb forest-growths, has covered all the rocks with ferns and lichens, has painted the stone with delicious tints...The floor of the Notch is covered with immense bowlders and fallen masses of rocks, which in this half-lighted vault have partly crumbled, and given foothold for vegetation. Mosses and ferns cover them, and in many instances great trees have found nourishment in the crevices, sometimes huge, gnarled roots encircling the rocks like immense anacondas. 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 "Rocks in Smugglers Notch, 1874" showcases a stunning rock formation nestled in the heart of Vermont, USA. Created by the talented artist Harry Fenn, this image transports us to a place where nature's beauty flourishes. The rocks in Smugglers Notch have been transformed into an enchanting spectacle by the abundant moisture that fills this picturesque location. Covered with lush ferns and vibrant lichens, these rocks have become canvases painted with delicious tints. As we explore further into this natural wonderland, we discover that the floor of the Notch is strewn with immense boulders and fallen masses of rocks. In this half-lighted vault created by towering trees above, some of these rocks have crumbled over time, providing footholds for vegetation to thrive. Mosses and ferns gracefully drape themselves over every surface while great trees find nourishment within crevices. The roots of these majestic giants encircle the rocks like immense anacondas, adding an element of mystery to this already awe-inspiring scene. Harry Fenn's masterful wood engraving captures not only the physical features but also evokes a sense of tranquility found within Smugglers Notch. This print serves as a reminder that even amidst rugged landscapes, nature has its way of creating breathtaking beauty through harmonious coexistence between rock formations and thriving forest-growths. "Rocks in Smugglers Notch" invites us to immerse ourselves in the wonders of nature's artistry while reminding us how delicate ecosystems can flourish when given space to thrive. "
