+++++ What Thomas Kinkade said about this work +++++
" The Edge of the Wilderness, an epic work created while I was still in my
twenties, reflects my early experiments with creating a sublime landscape style all my
own.
I placed my frontier camp under a majestic peak on the shores of a sylvan mountain lake.
The presence of boats on shore suggests the harmony of man and nature, as it does in many
of my mature landscapes. Smoke curls up from the tepee into the autumn sunset much as it
will from chimneys of more conventional dwellings. The Edge of the Wilderness is a
landmark from the earliest days of my career as the Painter of Light"
