Doughton Park sits along the Blue Ridge Parkway in northwestern North Carolina, and this pen-and-ink drawing renders it as a map rather than a landscape scene. Its lines trace the park's roads, trails, and terrain in the careful hand of a cartographic illustrator. The Blue Ridge Parkway was begun in 1935 as a scenic route linking Shenandoah National Park with the Great Smoky Mountains, and its wayside parks were laid out to show off the高 country's ridges and meadows. Doughton, named for Robert Lee Doughton, a longtime North Carolina congressman, is one of the larger parkway parks, and a map-style drawing like this one lets viewers see how its features fit together.
