The historic Hopi House, located on the rim of the Grand Canyon, is a large building of stone masonry designed by Mary Colter and completed in 1905 to resemble a Hopi dwelling similar to those at Oraibi, Arizona.
The Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe Railway Company commissioned Thomas Moran to paint various scenes of the Grand Canyon for promotional materials beginning in 1892. Moran continued to travel to the Grand Canyon almost every year from then until his death in 1926, and the Railway bought many of his paintings and engravings from these trips, helping to popularize the Grand Canyon.
Moran wrote, “Of all places on earth the great canyon of Arizona is the most inspiring in its pictorial possibilities.”
