介绍（中）	萨坎达加河和哈德逊河的汇合处位于哈德逊河投资组合板块1（54.90.1274（1））所示的急流下方。约翰·阿格（John Agg）的相关文本告诉我们，"这个地方的海岸破碎而陡峭;水流的自然过程被大块的石头碎片阻碍和分散注意力......风景的性格是狂野、凶猛、孤独的崇高。" 图像和描述都来自艺术家、作家和出版商合作制作的美国版画纪念碑。1820年夏天，爱尔兰出生的威廉·盖伊·沃尔（William Guy Wall）沿着哈德逊河巡回演出和素描，然后画了一系列大型水彩画。提出了同等规模的印刷品 - 以四件套的形式发行给订户 - 约翰·鲁本斯·史密斯聘请了这些版画。史密斯几乎立即被熟练的伦敦训练有素的水彩雕刻师约翰·希尔（John Hill）取代，他完成了前四幅版画，并在 1825 年又制作了十六幅。在接下来的十年里，投资组合的受欢迎程度激发了对美国景观的新欣赏，并为哈德逊河学校铺平了道路。
介绍（英）	The confluence of the Sacandaga and Hudson occurs just below the rapids represented in plate 1 of the Hudson River Portfolio (54.90.1274(1)). John Agg's related text tells us, "the shores in this place, are broken and precipitous; and the natural course of the current is impeded and distracted by the large fragments of stone...the character of the scenery is a wild, ferocious, and solitary sublimity. " Both image and description come from a monument of American printmaking produced through the collaboration of artists, a writer, and publishers. In the summer of 1820, the Irish-born William Guy Wall toured and sketched along the Hudson, then painted a series of large watercolors. Prints of equal scale were proposed—to be issued to subscribers in sets of four—and John Rubens Smith hired to work the plates. Almost immediately, Smith was replaced by the skilled London-trained aquatint engraver John Hill, who finished the first four plates, and produced sixteen more by 1825. Over the next decade, the popularity of the Portfolio stimulated new appreciation for American landscape, and prepared the way for the Hudson River School.
