'Point of Cape Ann, from Cedar Avenue, Pigeon Cove', 1874. The coast and Atlantic Ocean in Massachusetts, USA. 'In skirting the coast, after issuing from Salem Harbor, you almost immediately reach the broad and far-projecting peninsula at the end of which is Cape Ann, and which forms the northern boundary of Massachusetts Bay...Passing from the varied beauties of Pigeon Cove, with its alternate ruggedness, glistening beach, and luxuriant foliage, the northern side of Cape Ann is crossed by an ancient road, which at times enters beneath an arching of willows, and again emerges in sight of the waves and sails'. From "Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In, A Delineation by Pen and Pencil of the Mountains, Rivers, Lakes...with Illustrations on Steel and Wood by Eminent American Artists" Vol. II, edited by William Cullen Bryant.
