CS197003_Up-Big-River_serigraph_20x26_Charles-Marchant-Stevenson

Up Big River by Charles Marchant Stevenson (1970). Friends share an autumn sunset on Mendocino's Big River. In the 1850s, eight miles of the river were altered by the local lumber company to facilitate floating harvests of old-growth redwood logs to their mill just east of Big River Bridge. The mill closed in 1939, and the Big River estuary has become wild again, a peaceful home to river otters and sea lions, belted kingfishers, snowy egrets and great blue herons. In 2002, the Big River watershed became part of the California State Park system. Serigraph (20" x 26"). SKU: CS197003
