Antique Engraving - Worthington Whittredge - Rocky Mountains - New York - F5Original engraving by Worthington Whittredge created "The Rocky Mountains" in 1871. The scene shows the ford on the Platte, essentially at Denver, with an Indian settlement along the banks of the river and the Rockies in the distance. No evidence of Denver or any other gold rush impact is seen, for Whittredge was interested in a natural western scene, not in the changes being wrought by the flood of Americans from the east.
