Julian Price Memorial Park sits along the Blue Ridge Parkway near Blowing Rock, North Carolina, where a lake fills a valley beside the road and draws walkers, anglers and picnickers throughout the year. The park honors Julian Price, a Greensboro insurance executive who supported the Parkway's development. Like much of the Parkway, the landscape was shaped by a long federal effort, begun in the 1930s, to link protected mountain land into a single scenic route. As a drawing, the image offers a view of the park's mountain setting in a form that suggests the quiet, pastoral character visitors still seek there.
