EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Black Canon, Colorado River, Looking Below, Near Camp 7,1871" captures the rugged beauty of the American West in its early days. Taken by Timothy O Sullivan in 1871 as part of a geographical and geological exploration project west of the 100th meridian, this albumen print showcases the stunning natural landscape that would later become Gunnison National Park. The image transports viewers to a time when untouched wilderness stretched as far as the eye could see. The sheer cliffs of Black Canyon tower above the mighty Colorado River below, creating a dramatic scene that is both awe-inspiring and humbling. The monochromatic tones add depth and intensity to every detail captured by O Sullivan's lens. As one gazes upon this picturesque view, it becomes evident why early photography played such an important role in documenting America's vast landscapes. This particular print now resides at The Art Institute of Chicago and serves as a testament to our nation's rich history. Whether you are an admirer of nature or an enthusiast for early photography techniques, this remarkable image offers a glimpse into a time long gone but forever preserved through art.
