Coast Scene, Marin County, 1872. Creator: Andrew Varick Stout Anthony
Coast Scene, Marin County, 1872. Colony of seabirds on a rocky outcrop on the shore of the Pacific Ocean, California, USA. For the lover of natural scenery, these enormous, isolated rocks have a grand fascination, to which the birds contribute nothing. The grayish tones of the upper part, melting into the deepest brown, with the glowing white of the summit produced by guano, and the broad yellow of the withered grasses, delight the artistic eye. From " Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In, A Delineation by Pen and Pencil of the Mountains, Rivers, Lakes...with Illustrations on Steel and Wood by Eminent American Artists" Vol. I, edited by William Cullen Bryant. [D. Appleton and Company, New York, 1872]

The image captures a mesmerizing colony of seabirds perched upon a rocky outcrop amidst the rough seas. As we delve into this picturesque scene, it becomes evident that these enormous isolated rocks possess an irresistible allure for lovers of natural beauty. The monochromatic tones of gray and deep brown seamlessly blend with the glowing white summit created by guano deposits. These contrasting hues are further complemented by the broad yellow expanse of withered grasses that add a touch of vibrancy to this coastal landscape. Anthony's keen eye for detail and composition delights our artistic senses as we immerse ourselves in this visual masterpiece. Originally featured in "Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In" edited by William Cullen Bryant, this engraving showcases not only Anthony's talent but also his ability to capture the essence and grandeur of American landscapes during the 19th century.
