Rather than a single view, this drawing maps the entire Blue Ridge Parkway, with small vignettes arranged around the route to show the scenery a traveler would pass. Pictorial maps like this were a popular way to present scenic roads, letting drivers recognize overlooks and mountain landmarks at a glance. The parkway, begun in the 1930s, links Shenandoah National Park in Virginia with the Great Smoky Mountains, and the drawing celebrates the ridgeline scenery that defines the route.
