Description
(Copyright Mel Steinhauer all rights reserved) Kentucky backroads will often take you to some pretty famous horse farms, a few bourbon distilleries, up and down rolling hills and some small historic towns. According to the 2010 census there are only 751 people living in Perryville, A quaint village formed shortly after the War of 1812 was named in honor of Commodore Oliver Perry, a famous hero of the Battle of Lake Erie. During the Civil War, a battle major battle ended the Confederate campaigns in Kentucky, which was on the border between the North and the South. These buildings now known as Merchant's Row were built in the late 1830s and still stand today. They formed the main part of the village way back then and in 1961 became a vital part of our National Historic Landmarks. One day, on my way to Bardstown, I stopped for a little while to enjoy the peaceful quiet, the history, nostalgia and the beautiful colors of ... Downtown Perryville.
I created this image from my original photograph taken on location by adding digital enhancements, textures or other effects. These effects and image details will become more visible by clicking inside the green magnifier square as the cursor is placed over the image.
PLEASE NOTE: Our professional printing facilities have a feature for customers who desire artwork prepared for them to be in standard sizes such as 8 x 10, 11 x 14, 16 x 20, 24 x 30, 36 x 24 and so on. When you select your image to purchase, from the SIZE tab choose a VERTICAL, HORIZONTAL or SQUARE format. Notice that some portions of my original image may not be included in these cropped formats. The NATURAL format is the way I composed the image in camera or during final processing. Sometimes this would create an image size which required the use of non-standard mats or frames. So go ahead and see for yourself, by viewing my images in these new formats to decide which one may (or may not) best suit your needs or style of wall art. Of course, you may always choose the NATURAL format and purchase my art as it was originally composed and created.
Many thanks and best wishes!
