Catalogue Note
A stunning view from Hayden and Moran's Yellowstone Park, "the pinnacle of chromolithography as both a high-quality form of art reproduction and a commercially viable medium" (Marzio, Democratic Art). Moran's views were among the earliest pictorial records of the spectacular landscapes of then then-unexplored Yellowstone region.
