The gallery's Niagara Falls set includes this panoramic black and white view of rapids running between dense stands of trees, a scene that shows the river well upstream of the cataract itself. Water this turbulent was a familiar sight to visitors, who came to the area throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries to see the falls and the fast current leading up to them. Wide-format views like this one were often prized for capturing the scale of the landscape, and the long frame lets the eye follow the churning water from edge to edge.
