ローワー・イエローストーン・レンジ
1874
Thomas Moran's breathtaking view of the Lower Yellowstone Range played a huge role in convincing Congress to create the world's first national park. This 1874 chromolithograph captures the majestic, sun-drenched peaks and deep valleys with such vivid color that it feels like you're standing right on that rocky ledge. Moran's dramatic, romanticized landscapes didn't just document the American West—they actively shaped how the public imagined and valued these wild, untouched spaces, turning a remote wilderness into a national treasure.
