About the Item
The image is a two-part engraving with the upper section titled "Mount Hecla, with one of its Glaciers," depicting the formidable Mount Hecla in Iceland, an active volcano known for its glaciers.
In the foreground, figures are shown observing the natural wonder. The lower section, "The Geyser or Boiling Spring in Iceland," illustrates the iconic geothermal geyser, with figures witnessing the powerful eruption of steam and water. This engraving, published by Sherwood, Neely, and Jones in 1820, showcases the dramatic and rugged landscape of Iceland's volcanic and geothermal features.
The original publication of this work is still unknown and more research is needed.
