EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the bronze statue of explorers Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, accompanied by their Native American guide Sacagawea. Located in Charlottesville, Virginia, this majestic memorial stands as a testament to the bravery and pioneering spirit that shaped America's westward expansion. The vintage sculpture takes us back to the 19th century, a time when these intrepid adventurers embarked on their historic expedition known as the Corps of Discovery. In 1804, they set out from St. Louis to explore the newly acquired Louisiana Territory after President Thomas Jefferson's landmark Louisiana Purchase. Lewis and Clark's journey lasted from 1804 to 1806, during which they discovered uncharted territories and mapped vast regions of North America. Their encounter with various indigenous tribes was made possible through Sacagawea's invaluable guidance and translation skills. This photograph beautifully captures the essence of exploration and discovery that defined this era. It serves as a reminder of our nation's rich history and pays homage to those who paved the way for future generations in shaping what is now known as the United States' western frontier. As we admire this remarkable piece of artistry, let us reflect upon the courage exhibited by these trailblazers who ventured into unknown lands with determination and curiosity - forever etching their names in American history books.
