The Yellowstone National Park, and the mountain regions of portions of Idaho, Nevada, Colorado and Utah
Description
The Yellowstone National Park is considered one of Prang's greatest chromolithographic achievements. Taking the watercolors from Thomas Moran's 1871 expedition to Yellowstone for the United States government, Prang recreated Moran's fifteen watercolors and paired them with text by geologist Ferdinand V. Hayden. The two images shown here are Yellowstone Lake and Mountain of the Holy Cross.
