EDITORS COMMENTS
Upper Cascades of Whitewater Falls, Sapphire, N.C. (between 1900 and 1906) - This stunning photograph captures the Upper Cascades of Whitewater Falls in Sapphire, North Carolina, during the early 1900s. Taken by renowned photographer William H. Jackson, this glass negative image showcases the breathtaking beauty and power of nature as the water tumbles over the rocks and erodes the landscape. During this time, Whitewater Falls was already a popular tourist attraction, drawing visitors from all over the country to witness the natural wonder. The image, published by Detroit Publishing Company, was likely used for promotional purposes to entice travelers to visit the scenic location. The photograph was taken during the dry plate negative process, a popular photographic technique at the time. The resulting image, with its rich contrast and intricate detail, showcases the artist's skill and mastery of the medium. Whitewater Falls, located in Transylvania County, North Carolina, is the highest waterfall east of the Mississippi River, with a total height of 411 meters (1,348 feet). The falls are the result of erosion from Whitewater River, which flows over a series of rocks and cascades, creating a breathtaking display of running water and natural beauty. This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of nature and the importance of preserving its history. The image is now part of the collections of the Library of Congress, a national treasure that documents the rich heritage and history of the United States.
