Mount Washington, the tallest peak in the Northeast at 6,288 feet, rises above the valley in this view taken from the Conway Road, the route that brought summer travelers and sketch artists into the White Mountains during the 19th century. The White Mountains drew painters of the Hudson River School and hotel guests from Boston and New York, and roads like this one carried wagons and stagecoaches toward the grand resort hotels of the region. Look closely at the foreground and the way the mountain's bare summit catches light; these details show how visitors of the period framed the peaks as both a scenic wonder and a destination.
