Description: Here's a nice set of Picturesque America, two volumes dated 1872 and 1874. These were among the first of their kind to show early Americans the beauty of this land. These were published by D. Appleton & Co. New York. Here are the Picturesque America artists who travelled this country looking for beautiful scenery to draw. When they got home with it, it was engraved onto a steel or wood plate so it could be enjoyed by others. Harry FennR. Swain GiffordGranville PerkinsAlfred R. WaudJ. D. WoodwardW. L. SheppardC.
