Ranier National Park c. 1937 - 1940

"Ranier National Park" is a black and white woodcut by American artist Ella Sophonisba Hergesheimer, created between 1937 and 1940. The print depicts a sweeping landscape view of the park, dominated by a series of mountains with snow-capped peaks. The artist's use of strong lines and dark shadows creates a sense of depth and grandeur. This print is a striking example of Hergesheimer's skilled mastery of the woodcut medium, which was popular during the early 20th century. Hergesheimer's artwork often explored the natural beauty of the American West, capturing the dramatic landscapes in a minimalist style.
