Two small figures in light clothing sit on a rocky, rust-colored outcrop at a high vantage point, looking across a broad green valley toward layered blue ridges. The caption identifies the spot as Skyland, a resort on the crest of the Blue Ridge in what is now Shenandoah National Park, and places it near the Sky-Line Highway, an early name for Skyline Drive. The road was built along the ridge in the early 1930s, and the sweeping views from Skyland and the drive became popular tourist subjects.
