EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting landscapes of Iceland in 1862. The image showcases a breathtaking view of a natural land bridge near Portland Point, beautifully captured by Bayard Taylor through his remarkable drawing skills. The rugged Icelandic landscape is on full display, with its majestic mountains and vast sea stretching out into the horizon. In the foreground, we see a group of fishermen rowing their boat amidst the crashing waves. Their presence adds a sense of scale and human connection to this otherwise untouched scenery. It's fascinating to imagine the challenges they faced navigating these treacherous waters while surrounded by such awe-inspiring beauty. The natural land bridge itself is an incredible sight to behold. Its formation over time serves as a testament to nature's extraordinary power and artistry. This unique geological feature invites our imagination to wander, contemplating how it came into existence and what secrets lie beneath its surface. The black-and-white tones add a timeless quality to this piece, emphasizing the rawness and grandeur of Iceland's mid-19th century landscape. As we gaze upon this print from The Granger Collection, we can't help but feel transported back in time, experiencing firsthand the wonder that early explorers like Bayard Taylor must have felt when encountering such striking scenes in uncharted territories like Iceland.
