About this Item
Description:
Panoramic photograph comprised of fourteen silver prints, each 7 x 9 inches, for a total size of 7 x 126 inches. Quarto. Original red cloth boards, stamped in gilt. Prints attached to stiff paper mounts. First three prints bound together and attached to front pastedown; final eleven bound together, loose in binding. A bit of clouding at edges of several images, but overall very good. A remarkable panoramic photograph showing the growing city of Portland, Oregon at the dawn of the 20th century. The panorama is composed of fourteen silver prints, totaling more than ten feet in length, and depicts the city from the west looking east. The Willamette River runs through the center of the photographs, and Portland is shown rising up on either side, with houses, multi-story buildings, docks, warehouses, and a growing downtown. The hilly topography of the city and surrounding area is clearly demonstrated, and Mount St. Helens can be seen in the fifth panel. The photographer, L.C. Henrichsen, was born in Denmark and moved to Portland in 1861, where he had a long career as a prominent jeweler and optician. A scarce image, with OCLC locating only eight copies. A copy of this panorama sold at a Swann Galleries photography sale in 2014 for $4500 plus house premium (or net $5625). Seller Inventory # WRCAM52611
