The Passaic, Below Little Falls, 1874. Wooden covered bridge and stone aqueduct over the Passaic River, New Jersey, USA. At Little Falls the Morris Canal crosses the river by a handsome stone aqueduct; and from the summit of this the artistic loungers may obtain a charming view of the stream, winding down between over-hanging hills of greenery, and jutting escarpments of cedar- crowned trap-rock and sandstone.... 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. II, edited by William Cullen Bryant.

The Passaic, Below Little Falls, 1874
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us back to the enchanting landscapes of 19th century America. Captured by John J. Harley, this image showcases a wooden covered bridge and a majestic stone aqueduct gracefully spanning the Passaic River in New Jersey. As we gaze upon this scene, our eyes are drawn to the Morris Canal crossing the river through an exquisite stone aqueduct at Little Falls. From atop this architectural marvel, one can indulge in a picturesque view of the meandering stream flowing between lush hills adorned with verdant greenery. The rugged beauty of cedar-crowned trap-rock and sandstone cliffs adds an element of drama to this idyllic setting. This print hails from "Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In" edited by William Cullen Bryant and published by D. Appleton and Company in 1874. It offers us a glimpse into not only the natural wonders but also the artistic prowess of eminent American artists who contributed illustrations on steel and wood for this remarkable volume. The tranquility captured within these frames transports us to a time when rowing boats peacefully glided along the river's gentle currents. Nature flourishes abundantly here, with trees framing both sides of the riverbank while various plants add vibrant splashes of color to this serene tableau. John J. Harley's skillful composition invites us to immerse ourselves in an era where transportation relied on waterways like these for trade and leisurely pursuits alike. This print serves as a testament to both human ingenuity in constructing such magnificent structures as well as Mother Nature's awe-inspiring creations that continue to captivate our hearts even today.
