White Sulphur Spring, Montgomery County is a 1857 ink by Edward Beyer, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This image shows a quiet, sprawling estate nestled in a green valley. A large central building sits at the heart of the scene, surrounded by smaller structures, gardens, and winding paths. Trees frame the property, and a mountain looms softly in the background under a pale sky. The title at the top reads *Album of Virginia*, and the bottom label names the place: *White Sulphur Spring, Montgomery Co.* The whole scene looks calm, like a snapshot of a peaceful countryside retreat. If you like this view, look up lithography to see how artists like Beyer made detailed prints like this one.
Edward Beyer (1820–1865) was a German landscape painter who was active in the United States and became known for his depiction of the Antebellum South.
