The American West was the subject of Thomas Moran's greatest artistic

The American West was the subject of Thomas Moran's greatest artistic triumphs-Yosemite, the Grand Canyon of the Colorado, Zion Canyon, the Virgin River, Colorado's Mountain of the Holy Cross, and the Grand Tetons-but his travels with Ferdinand V. Hayden's geological surveys of the Upper Yellowstone were matched by trips to his native Britain and to Venice, Florida, the Spanish Southwest, and Old Mexico. These scenes inspired memorable landscapes and seascapes, as did the sojourns of the Moran family in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and East Hampton, Long Island, when they retreated from the demands of the New York art scene. In the 1880s Moran and his artist wife, Mary Nimmo Moran, also threw themselves into the etching craze of the period, creating some of the finest prints produced in the United States. This extensively revised edition of Thurman Wilkins's masterful and engaging biography-well illustrated in color and black-and-white-draws on new information and recent scholarship to place Thomas Moran more securely in the milieu of the Gilded Age. It also portrays more fully the controversies that surrounded the art of Moran's time, as he became 'the Dean of American Painters. ' Open copy with mild wear, wrapped in Brodart protector, light fading along spine of dust jacket, clean pages/interiors with tight binding.
