These images offer a captivating glimpse into the diverse landscapes of Colorado and New Mexico during the late 19th century. The photographs capture both the grandeur of nature and the quiet serenity of rural life in the American West.

Photographs Include:
Clear Creek, Colorado: A striking view of the winding creek amidst rugged terrain, showcasing the natural beauty and dramatic landscapes characteristic of Colorado.
Twin Lake, Colorado: A serene image of Twin Lake, reflecting the surrounding mountains and the expansive sky, conveying the tranquility of this picturesque location.

Maxwell's Ranch, New Mexico: A panoramic view of Maxwell's Ranch, set against the backdrop of rolling plains and distant mountain ranges, illustrating the vastness and solitude of the New Mexico landscape.

Each photograph retains excellent detail and the rich sepia tones typical of albumen prints. The page, though showing minor signs of age such as edge wear and slight toning, preserves the photographs well, offering a rare and authentic piece of American history.

This collection is ideal for collectors of Western Americana, vintage photography, or anyone interested in the history of the American West. These images not only capture the scenic beauty of the region but also serve as valuable historical documents from an era of exploration and settlement.
