This lot includes two gorgeous early views of Salt Lake City, Utah. The first engraving is a German view that presents the city from ground level, with grazing cattle in the foreground and a nice view of the lake with a few vessels on the water. The second depicts the city from a vantage on one of the surrounding mountains.
