The Delaware Water Gap is where the river cuts through the Kittatinny Ridge, and this view shows the water winding between wooded hills dotted with small islands. The gap has drawn artists and travelers since the early 1800s, when painters and writers were searching the Northeast for scenery that looked wild and grand. Views like this one helped shape a national taste for American landscapes that were picturesque rather than purely industrial. The river itself marks the boundary between Pennsylvania and New Jersey, which gives the scene both its geographic interest and its sense of a natural passage through the mountains.
