Beacon Hill, Neversink Highlands, 1872 - A Glimpse into the Picturesque America
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a breathtaking view of Beacon Hill in the Neversink Highlands, dating back to 1872. Taken by the talented photographer John Filmer, this image showcases the stunning coastal landscape of Highlands, New Jersey in all its glory. On the right side of the photograph stands proudly the Navesink Twin Lights lighthouse. Constructed just ten years prior in 1862, it serves as a guiding beacon for ships navigating these treacherous waters. The lighthouse's presence adds an element of grandeur and historical significance to this already picturesque scene. The surrounding countryside is adorned with rolling hills and lush greenery that stretches out as far as the eye can see. In this tranquil setting, a group of cows peacefully graze along a country road leading towards the coast. Their presence adds a touch of serenity and rural charm to this idyllic landscape. This remarkable print was originally featured in "Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In" edited by William Cullen Bryant and published by D. Appleton & Company in 1872. It is part of a larger collection that aimed to capture and celebrate America's natural beauty through pen-and-pencil illustrations created by eminent American artists such as Granville Perkins. As we gaze upon this enchanting image from over a century ago, we are transported back in time to witness nature's splendor mingling harmoniously with man-made structures—a testament to both human ingenuity and Mother Nature's awe-inspiring creations.
