The illustration beautifully captures a bustling scene with sailboats gracefully gliding along the river's sparkling waters. The vibrant colors bring to life a bygone era when settlers embarked on perilous journeys towards new opportunities in this untamed land. Oregon City stands proudly amidst rolling hills and lush greenery, exuding an air of resilience and progress.
