Art in America; a critical and historical sketch
A survey of American painting, sculpture, architecture and engraving written by Samuel Greene Wheeler Benjamin and published by Harper & Brothers in New York in 1880 for general readers. The wood engravings reproduce contemporary landscape work — rocky shorelines, birch trunks, wooded riverbanks, small figures on paths — offering dense hatched foliage, silvery water textures and vignetted framing trees.
