About the Item
Title: Scenic Depiction of "Dalles" - A Majestic View of Indigenous Life Along the Columbia River
Description: This exquisite lithograph titled "Dalles" captures a serene yet dynamic riverside scene along the Columbia River. Featuring indigenous people in their daily activities, the composition skillfully portrays a balance between nature's grandiosity and human interaction with the environment. The iconic basalt cliffs of the Columbia River form a striking backdrop, while the river reflects the soft hues of a setting sun, adding an ethereal glow to the scene. The detailed foreground, with figures fishing and engaging in everyday tasks, provides a glimpse into the harmonious relationship between the indigenous population and their natural surroundings.
This piece is a fine example of 19th-century lithographic artistry, produced by Sarony, Major & Knapp, a renowned lithography firm based in New York. The delicate color palette and intricate details demonstrate the skill of both the artist and the lithographer, making this print a treasured historical and artistic artifact. Its inclusion in a government expedition report highlights its role in documenting the landscapes and peoples of the American West.
Condition: The print is in very good condition with minor toning consistent with age. Slight foxing on the margins and a few small pinholes in the top do not affect the image.
Tips for Matting and Framing: Use a neutral or slightly warm-toned mat to enhance the soft hues of the print. Consider a simple black or dark wooden frame to draw attention to the composition while complementing its historical significance. Acid-free materials are recommended to ensure long-term preservation of this delicate piece.

Set of 4 Turn of the Century American Lithographic Framed Prints
Located in London, GB
Set of 4 turn of the century American Lithographic framed prints.
Controversial and illustrated in the typical turn of the Century American fashion. A set of four vibrantly coloured lithographic prints, framed in unusual Gothic pine frames. With brass hooks still attached, the reverse clearly show that these images have never been removed or replaced since they would have been framed in the 1900s. Depicting life’s process of the Afro American, from courting to creating a family. We have never seen the like and in this collection/condition, you are unlikely to see the same ever again.

Condition: Aged
