A Gorge in the Mountains (Kauterskill Clove) 1862 was painted by Sanford Robinson Gifford. Unlike the other artists focusing on a central mountain or waterfall, as had most artists in earlier depictions of the landscape during his time, Gifford chose to feature light and atmosphere as viewed from Kauterskill (Kaaterskill) Clove in the eastern Catskill Mountains.
Gorge: a narrow valley between hills or mountains, typically with steep rocky walls and a stream running through it.
Although digitally restored, the cracks and fine lines are left intact on this painting to honor the time this painting emerged from.
