America the Beautiful - Original Photographs

A collection of 19th and early 20th century photographs of America. Early photographers made wonderful photographs of America, often spending months pursuing their quest for the beauty that they found in the vast open spaces of the country. This was supplemented by the city photographers who photographed the places where they worked and lived. 19th century photographers like Carleton Watkins and William Henry Jackson were the inspiration for many 20th century photographers. This collection of beautiful photographs from a bygone era are a peek into the world that was. Happy Birthday America.
