This circa 1856 photograph captures old west frontiersman, fur trapper, mountain man, explorer and scout, James Beckwourth (born James Beckwith). A man of multiracial descent born into slavery and emancipated in 1824, he is credited with discovery of the Beckwourth Pass, which connected Reno, Nevada to Portola, California during the California Gold Rush. This restored old west black & white print adds character to any room and makes a great gift. This print is a restored reproduction of a vintage photograph printed on canvas or archival paper.
