브룩 다리 by Ernest Peixotto, 1897

Ernest Peixotto captures a serene moment in New Jersey with this delicate sketch of a stone bridge arching over Stony Brook. The handwritten label at the bottom adds a wonderful travelogue feel, marking the spot as '40 Miles to Phila' and '56 Miles to N. York,' essentially acting as a 19th-century GPS coordinate. Signed in Princeton, the piece showcases the artist's eye for the rustic American landscape, framing the sturdy three-arched masonry with a gnarled, reaching tree that dominates the foreground.
