Black and white wood engraving of a steep rocky canyon with a stream over boulders and distant mountains under clouds.

Devil's Gate, Weber Cañon

A narrow rocky gorge opens onto distant mountains under a cloudy sky, with a stream running over boulders at the lower right. Dense hatching and fine lines render the cliffs, rocks, and a bare tree in a dark, detailed monochrome print on cream paper.

Español: Devil's Gate, cañón Weber, grabado en madera

Una estrecha garganta rocosa se abre hacia montañas lejanas bajo un cielo nublado, con un arroyo que corre entre rocas en la parte inferior derecha. Tramas densas y líneas finas describen los acantilados, las piedras y un árbol desnudo en una estampa monocromática de gran detalle sobre papel crema.

Português: Devil's Gate, cânion Weber, gravura em madeira

Uma estreita garganta rochosa se abre para montanhas distantes sob um céu nublado, com um riacho correndo entre pedras no canto inferior direito. Hachuras densas e linhas finas definem os penhascos, as rochas e uma árvore desfolhada, em uma estampa monocromática detalhada sobre papel creme.
