A fabulous ensemble of four original antique hand-colored woodblocks for "Picturesque America" published by D. Appleton & Co., New York and "The Aldine" after Thomas Moran landscapes, ca. 1870. These include: (1) "Terres Mauvaises, Utah"; (2) "Marble Canon"; (3) "Dial Rock, Red Buttes, Laramie Plains"; and (4) "Springville Canon". Thomas Moran (b. Bolton, England 1837 - died Santa Barbara, California 1926) is known for his glorious views of the American West. Size: "Springfield Canon" in "The Aldine" measures 7.875" W x 10.25" H (20 cm x 26 cm); sheet measures 11" W x 16" H (27.9 cm x 40.6 cm); 15" W x 20" H (38.1 cm x 50.8 cm) with mat
According to the Luce Artist Biography, "Thomas Moran was the first American painter to capture the grandeur of Yellowstone and the Grand Canyon. Born in England, he immigrated to America as a child and apprenticed to an engraver in Philadelphia. The turning point in Moran's career came in 1871 when he joined the Hayden expedition, the first to survey the Yellowstone region in detail. Moran's images of dramatic canyons, hot springs, and geysers captured the imagination of the American public and helped bring about Yellowstone's designation as America’s first national park. (Anderson, Thomas Moran, 1997)"
