EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the breathtaking Needle Mountains, located in the Canyon of the Rio de las Animas. Taken around 1897 by an unknown photographer, this image captures the essence of 19th-century America's natural beauty. The Needle Mountains are a stunning subrange of the San Juan Mountains within the Rocky Mountain range. The name "Rio de las Animas" was recorded by Spanish explorer Juan Maria de Rivera back in 1765, adding historical significance to this picturesque landscape. The aerial view allows us to appreciate the grandeur and vastness of these mountains. The elevated perspective reveals a dense forest covering their slopes, creating a striking contrast against evergreen trees that dot the landscape. One can only imagine what it must have been like for explorers venturing into these uncharted territories during that time. Incorporated into Prof. Geo. R. Cromwell's book titled "A Tour Through the New World America" this photograph serves as both an artistic representation and a geographical feature study. It transports us back to a time when nature remained untouched by modern development. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, we are reminded of our connection with nature and how it has shaped our history and literature throughout centuries past. This print is not just an image; it is a window into another era—a testament to human curiosity and exploration in pursuit of discovering new lands and experiences in North America's wilderness.
