View along US 40 in Mount Vernon Canyon, Colorado, 1942
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph by Andreas Feininger transports us back to the heart of America during the tumultuous years of World War II. The image captures a picturesque scene along Highway US 40, nestled within the breathtaking beauty of Mount Vernon Canyon. As our gaze follows the winding road that disappears into the distance, we are reminded of both the vastness and resilience of this great country. In this snapshot frozen in time, nature's majesty is juxtaposed with man-made progress. Shingle Creek flows peacefully below as it winds its way through the canyon, while towering mountains stand tall against an expansive sky. Amidst this serene backdrop stands a symbol of American ingenuity - a sleek 1941 Buick convertible parked at roadside. Feininger's composition skillfully draws our attention to multiple layers within this scene - from the foreground where the vintage car commands our focus, to Green Mountain rising proudly on the horizon beyond Denver. It is as if he invites us to contemplate not only how far we have come but also what lies ahead. As we reflect upon this still image captured over seven decades ago, we are reminded that history has shaped our present reality. This photograph serves as a testament to both human achievement and natural wonders that continue to define America's landscape today.
