Serene Landscape of Lake Jessie in Dakota - Tinted Lithgraph Published in 1856

About the Item

Title: Serene Landscape of Lake Jessie with Idyllic Reflections – 19th-Century Lithograph Description: This stunning lithograph captures the tranquil beauty of Lake Jessie, a serene body of water surrounded by lush greenery and distant structures on the shoreline. Rendered in fine detail, the print conveys the calm reflections of the lake and the soft interplay of light and shadows, creating an atmospheric and peaceful scene. This artwork comes from an important 19th-century survey, showcasing the pioneering spirit of exploration in the United States during the era. Lake Jessie in North Dakota: Situated two miles east of Binford in Griggs County, this lake spans about 474 acres. It is adjacent to the Lake Jessie State Historic Site, which commemorates the 1839 camp of the Nicollet-Frémont expedition. The lithographic technique employed here exemplifies the precision and artistry of the time, with soft gradations and intricate textures. This particular piece highlights the lake's vast, open expanse, contrasting with the clustered trees and hills in the foreground and background. Such a depiction makes this artwork both a historical document and a timeless decorative piece. Collectors and history enthusiasts will appreciate this print's ability to transport viewers to a tranquil moment in time. The fine details and tonal variations speak to the mastery of the artist and lithographers who worked to bring such landscapes to life. This piece serves as both a window into America's natural beauty and a testament to the craftsmanship of 19th-century lithographic art. Condition: The print is in very good condition with light toning and minimal foxing in the margins, consistent with its age. Framing Tips: For display, consider using a neutral-toned mat and a classic wood or metallic frame to enhance the lithograph's natural tones while protecting its vintage appeal. Archival-quality materials are recommended to preserve its condition.
