About the Item

Title: Teton Valley - Tinted Lithograph from the Pacific Railroad Survey, 1856 Description: This beautiful lithograph, "Teton Valley," offers a panoramic view of the scenic valley framed by towering cliffs and a meandering river. Published as General Report – Plate XXVIII in the Pacific Railroad Exploration Survey reports of 1856, the image showcases the natural beauty and geological features of this iconic region during the mid-19th century. The composition highlights the lush vegetation in the foreground, contrasting with the rugged cliffs and expansive sky. The Teton Valley’s tranquil river winds through the landscape, inviting the viewer into this serene yet majestic setting. The scene illustrates the unspoiled wilderness as it was encountered during early explorations of the American West. Created by Sarony, Major & Knapp, this tinted lithograph combines fine detailing with soft, warm tones, emphasizing the valley's depth and grandeur. The precision and artistry of the lithograph reflect the era’s commitment to capturing the spirit of discovery and the vastness of the frontier. The Teton Valley is located in eastern Idaho and extends into western Wyoming. It sits at the western base of the Teton Range and is part of the larger Snake River Valley. Nearby important places include Driggs, the largest town in the valley, as well as Victor and Tetonia in Idaho. Jackson Hole, Wyoming, lies just over Teton Pass. The valley is close to Grand Teton National Park, Yellowstone National Park, and the Grand Targhee Resort. The Targhee National Forest surrounds much of the area, offering outdoor activities. Teton Valley is known for its stunning views of the Teton Range, making it a popular spot for hiking, skiing, and fly fishing. Wildlife such as moose, elk, and bears can be seen in the area. Historically, it has been an agricultural community, known for potato farming. The valley also provides a quieter and more affordable alternative to Jackson Hole while still offering access to major national parks. Its history includes Native American presence, fur trappers, and early pioneers. Condition: Very good, with clean margins and only minor age-related toning. The colors remain vivid, and the details are sharp and clear. A tiny pinhole in title and in the upper margins, outside the image. Framing Tip: A cream or pale gray matte would enhance the natural tones of this lithograph, paired with a simple wooden or metallic frame. This print is perfect for a study, library, or collection focused on the landscapes and history of the American West.
