Self-taught wood-carvers Levi Fisher Ames (1843–1923) and Albert Zahn (1864–1953) each fashioned art environments inspired by the fact and fiction of the natural world. Contemporary photographs and watercolors, and the re-creation of historical signage offer fresh perspectives on the work of two remarkable Wisconsin artists.
