The Hudson River Port-Folio contains twenty aquatints views of the Hudson River Valley engraved by John Hill after paintings by William G. Wall. Published by Henry I. Megarey, New York. The Hudson River runs 315 miles from the Adirondack Mountains to New York City. The views start near Lake Luzerne and end with a view of New York City from Governor's Island. The original proposal was for twenty-four prints; however, only twenty were ever published between 1821 to 1825. This particular one is #10 which is the scene of Fort Edward. Fort Edward is situated on the east bank of the Hudson, two miles south of Sandy Hill, and about eleven miles north of Fort Miller Bridge. After much investigation--This and the other Hudson River Valley Print #20 Governor's Island that we have on our web site are not Originals BUT restrikes from about 40 years ago. Originals are worth about $6,000-$8,000.
