Thomas Moran and the Surveying of the American West
Angebote / Angebote:
Presenting the first in-depth study of Thomas Moran's early western landscapes, Joni Louise Kinsey describes how the artist created three monumental paintings--"The Grand Canon of the Yellowstone" (1872), "The Chasm of the Colorado" (1873-74), and "The Mountain of the Holy Cross" (1875)--that, in the aftermath of the Civil War, evoked the nation's spiritual journey and suggestsed its cultural upheaval. The author describes how the paintings reflected a new national identity of both failure and promise, and helped open the West for tourism and travel.
