This superb reproduction of a finely wrought steelplate engraving "Mount Desert Coast Of Maine" from William Cullen Bryant's PICTURESQUE AMERICA was originally published by D. Appleton & Co., New York, circa 1872-4.
In Harry Fenn's painting, the sunrise above the hills of Mount Desert are shown with a Clipper ship skimming the water off the coast of Maine. The original engraver was Hinshelwood.
