EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Pillars of Hercules, also known as the Needles, in the Columbia River Gorge of the Pacific Northwest. Taken around 1900 by an unknown photographer, this dramatic rock formation stands tall and proud against the backdrop of the Columbia River. The image reveals more than just nature's grandeur; it captures a glimpse into history. Railway tracks and a telegraph line can be seen running between these imposing outcrops, reminding us of the importance of transportation in connecting communities during that time. Published in "Scenic Marvels of the New World" edited by Professor Geo. R. Cromwell, this photograph is a testament to his passion for showcasing geographical wonders. The monochrome composition adds an air of mystery and timelessness to this remarkable landscape. Located between Oregon and Washington states, these iconic pillars have become a popular tourist attraction over the years due to their awe-inspiring beauty. As we gaze upon this historic image from over a century ago, we are transported back in time to witness nature's artistry at its finest. This print serves as both a reminder of our country's natural splendor and an homage to those who explored and documented such marvels for future generations to appreciate.
