Antique page with two images of different scenic areas within the Delaware Water Gap between New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The first image shows the river running downstream over rocks, with trees and other greenery surrounding. The lower illustration shows a view of Diana's Bath, or Caldeno Falls, a waterfall in the Poconos. Published in William Cullen Bryant's classic 1872 work, "Picturesque America." Illustrations are on the left with a page of text to the right and in between the two images. Recent hand-coloring. Very good antique condition with some mild toning of the paper, which is darker at the outer edges, and some minor spots of foxing in the margins. Each image with its caption measures approximately 4.25" x 3.25" individually.
