Looking North East Across The Upper and Lower Valleys of Gardiners River. From Quadrant Mt. - Gallatin Range.
William Henry Holmes, was a unique 19th century renaissance man who was a great artist who was along for Hayden's expeditions in the West, and illustrated some of the earliest sketches of the regions geology and land quality. With a strong science background he didn't over dramatize what they encountered, but instead gave some of the most exacting and readily identifiable images for parts of the territorial West. This beautiful image spans from mouth of Gardiners River to the Spur of the Washburn range.
Condition is very good. Image size is 8 x 23 (inches)
