The drawings that we have chosen accompanied several chapters of Porte Crayon's Virginia Illustrated. We have divided them into the three topical categories below. Click on the thumbnail image to bring up a larger illustration. The thumbnails are approximately one quarter the size of the original Tiff images.

• "Local color" drawings of people
• Weyers Cave
• Other places of interest in Augusta county
