EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Saved" is an illustration from the book "The Natural Bridge, or One Niche the Highest" by Elihu Burritt. Created in the 19th century by an English School artist, this colorful lithograph showcases a thrilling adventure set amidst the breathtaking mountains of Virginia. In this scene, we witness a young American boy hanging perilously from a cliff, his life depending on a single rope. The tension and danger are palpable as he dangles above the abyss. This work of fiction masterfully captures the essence of suspense and rescue. "The Natural Bridge" refers to both the physical landmark and metaphorical concept that plays a significant role in Burritt's story. It symbolizes reaching new heights and overcoming obstacles, making it a fitting backdrop for this heart-pounding moment. With its vibrant colors and detailed depiction, this print transports us to another time and place – North America during its early days. It serves as a reminder of our adventurous spirit as Americans and our ability to conquer challenges head-on. This artwork is part of an extensive private collection but has been made available through Fine Art Finder's partnership with Bridgeman Images. Its inclusion in Look and Learn magazine allows us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its contribution to storytelling through visual mediums.
