Marble Canyon, 1874. Creator: W. J. Linton

Marble Canyon, 1874. View of Marble Canyon which marks the beginning of the Grand Canyon, Arizona, USA. The most beautiful of all the canyons begins at the mouth of the Paria [River], and extends to the junction of the Little Colorado, or Chiquito, as it is called by the Indians. This part of the gorge is named Marble Canyon, and is sixty-five and a half miles long. The walls are of limestone or marble, beautifully carved and polished, and the forms assumed have the most remarkable resemblances to ruined architecture...The colors of the marble are various - pink, brown, gray, white, slate-color, and vermilion.... From " Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In, A Delineation by Pen and Pencil of the Mountains, Rivers, Lakes...with Illustrations on Steel and Wood by Eminent American Artists" Vol. II, edited by William Cullen Bryant.
