The view looks down a curving road on the Sky-Line Drive, with evergreen trees edging the pavement and layered Blue Ridge ridges fading toward a sunset sky. The road follows the crest of the Blue Ridge in Shenandoah National Park, built in the 1930s to open the high overlooks to motor tourists. The caption's "Sky-Line" spelling is an early styling of today's Skyline Drive.
