Junction of the Sacandaga and Hudson Rivers (No. 2 of The Hudson River Portfolio)

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. "
