Description
BODMER, Karl (1809-1893) – HIMELY, Sigismond (1801-1872). Mouth of Fox River (Indiana). London: Ackermann & Co., 1842. Fine aquatint engraving with original hand color. Bodmer produced this peaceful and evocative view while traveling through North America with the great explorer and naturalist Prince Maximilian of Wied-Neuwied. The Prince wrote in his journal, “Mr. Bodmer made a drawing from an interesting landscape, the estuary of the Fox River into the Wabash,” going on to say that the water was “clear and dark green” and that “colossal Plantanus trees were shining white in the densely tangled thicket.” Originally published in Travels in the Interior of North America. Graff 4648; Howes M443a; Pilling 2521; Sabin 47014; Wagner-Camp 76:1. 17 ½ x 24 inches (unframed)
