Rather than a single town, this view spreads across the whole White Mountain range of northern New Hampshire, seen from a high vantage point as if from above the valleys. Bird's-eye views like this were a popular nineteenth-century format, letting viewers take in roads, villages and peaks at a glance. Mount Washington, at 6,288 feet the highest summit in the Northeast, drew many visitors to the region by the later 1800s, and prints like this helped capture that appeal.
