About This Design

Hornbek Homestead, Florissant, Colorado Postcard

Hornbek Homestead, Florissant, Colorado Postcard

The Hornbek Homestead in Florissant, Colorado, is a testament to the hard-working perseverance of Adeline Hornbek, mother of four, who moved her family in the 1870s to the Florissant Valley of Colorado after the death of two husbands and the loss of two houses. Claiming land under the Homestead Act, Adeline Hornbek defied traditional gender roles to become the owner of a prosperous ranch. By 1904, she owned more than 280 acres and 40 head of cattle. Located within Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument, the house is one of the best surviving examples of domestic log architecture in the Rocky Mountain Region. The walls of the 1½-story dwelling are of massive squared logs with V-notched joints. The steeply pitched gable roof is cedar shingled. The house appears to have been constructed in three stages, with its wings resulting in an irregular floor plan. You can visit this homestead, which is 35 miles west of Colorado Springs on the flanks of Pikes Peak. The homestead is on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.

Bought 10 Shakespeare quotes postcards and have framed them individually and placed them around the house Love them, some are funny and some are deep and meaningful! Lovely background on some, excellent printed words. A couple of plain white cards with black print - very stricking

My order was probably an awkward one! I asked for a range of different fine-art prints, in postcard size. It was all freshly printed, delivered quickly and at a very reasonable price. Best quality matt finish I've seen on a fine-art print.

These cards are great quality, I use them as enclosure cards for my business! Hey are a little pricey but you definitely get the quality and professionalism! Repurchased a few times now and will continue to do so :). Beautiful, nice sheen on them, sharp and clear
