Gibbon Falls, Yellow-Stone National Park

1880

About the Item

Gibbon Falls, Yellow-Stone National Park  is a chromolithograph from c.1880 showing two fisherman at the base of Gibbon Falls.  This chromolithograph is a dramatic view of the powerful Gibbon waterfall that cascades 84 feet into a small, clear pool. The setting is quintessential Yellowstone, with scrubby pine trees and rocky cliffs. The inscription on the bottom left corner below the image says Scenery From Nature on the Northern Pacific R.R.   Established by the U.S. Congress and signed into law by President Ulysses S. Grant on March 1, 1872  Yellowstone was the first national park in the U.S. and is widely held to be the first national park in the world. Native Americans have lived in the Yellowstone  region for at least 11,000 years. The Northern Pacific Railroad built a train station in Livingston, Montana connecting to the northern entrance of Yellowstone in the early 1880's . The visitors in the early years had to travel by horseback or stagecoach and had to endure poor roads and limited services. After the Northern Pacific built the station visitation to the park increased from about 300 in 1872 to 5,000 in 1883. The Yellowstone Branch Line Trail of today was one of many railroad lines  converted into nature trails. A rare print in good condition and linen backed. There is a little water staining in the bottom corners and a small paper loss on the outside left margin about three and a half inches from the bottom. the image size is 23.,75 x 17.75

  • Assemblee des Rabbins et Notables.. original lithograph by Theo Tobiasse
    By Théo Tobiasse
    Located in Paonia, CO
    Assemblee des Rabbins et Notables au 16 siecle  dans un village de Lithuanie is an original artist proof ( E. A. ) lithograph by  Theo Tobiasse (b.1927 -2012) , an internationally successful French painter, engraver, illustrator, and sculptor. He grew up in Paris during the Nazi occupation. His work has great depth and originality as he seeks to express the inner world of man.  Perhaps the hardships he and his family endured helped define his artistic expression. He has had many exhibitions around the world, in Paris at the Drouant gallery, in Geneva, Montreal or Tokyo, then London, Zurich, Lauzanne, Los Angeles, Kyiv. He also had a solo exhibition in New York and many more shows world wide over the years.  A visit to Jerusalem in 1970 brought him closer to his Jewish origins. He created his first stained glass windows on the theme of “Jewish Holidays” for the Jewish Community Center in Nice and a monumental oil on canvas entitled Que tes tentes sont belles, ô Jacob (1982). He traveled and immersed himself in the cultures he encountered, the jazz of New Orleans, Mexican archaeological sites and Native American totems. In New York, he met Elie Wiesel...
