介绍（中）	告诉上的文字告诉我们，"特洛伊城位于哈德逊河东岸，奥尔巴尼以北约6英里，靠近单桅帆船航行中心。"然后，它描述了该城作为一个拥有4000多人口的贸易中心的快速发展。这里的景色"开阔迷人；南面是卡茨基尔高耸的山脉……前景中的道路……向北延伸到桑迪山、乔治湖和尚普兰湖。"版画来自哈德逊河作品集，这是一座由艺术家、作家和出版商合作制作的美国版画纪念碑。1820年夏天，出生于爱尔兰的长城沿着哈德逊河游览并绘制草图，然后绘制了一系列大型水彩画。有人提议向订户发行同等规模的印刷品，一套四张，约翰·鲁本斯·史密斯受雇制作这些印版。几乎立刻，史密斯就被训练有素的伦敦水彩雕刻师约翰·希尔取代了，他完成了前四块印版，到1825年又生产了十六块。在接下来的十年里，Portfolio的流行激发了人们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）	Text published with this image tells us that, "the city of Troy is delightfully situated on the east shore of the Hudson, about six miles north of Albany, and near the head of sloop navigation." It then describes the town's rapid growth as a trading center with a population over four thousand. The vista seen here, "embraces a most extensive and enchanting view; bounded on the south by the towering mountains of Katskill...The road, in the foreground...runs northward to Sandy-Hill, and Lakes George and Champlain." The print comes from the Hudson River Portfolio, a monument of American printmaking produced through the collaboration of artists, a writer, and publishers. In the summer of 1820, the Irish-born 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.
