Rough Travelling in Colorado - A Glimpse into the Wild West
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving, titled "Rough Travelling in Colorado" takes us back to the untamed landscapes of 19th-century America. Created by William Ralston and published in The Graphic on August 27,1881, this print offers a fascinating glimpse into the challenges faced by early travelers exploring the rugged terrain of Colorado. The scene depicted showcases a treacherous mountain pass known as Agentine Pass near Georgetown. As we observe closely, we witness a group of weary travelers navigating their way through rocky paths with their horses. The artist's attention to detail highlights every aspect of this arduous journey – from the worn-out feet of both man and beast to the strained expressions on their faces. The toll gate visible in the background reminds us that even amidst such harsh conditions, commerce thrived. This image encapsulates not only physical hardship but also resilience and determination exhibited by those who ventured westward during this era. Ralston's skillful rendering transports us back to an era when travel was far from comfortable or convenient. It serves as a reminder of how far our modern means of transportation have come since then. This historic engraving preserved within Bridgeman Images' collection allows us to appreciate both the beauty and challenges encountered while traversing through one of America's most iconic regions during its formative years.
