About Artwork: (1866) "In May 1863 Bierstadt took his second trip to the West. By August he was sketching in California’s Yosemite Valley, probably inspired by the stereoscopic photographs Carleton E. Watkins made there in 1861. Back in New York, Bierstadt painted several large works based on his on-site sketches. In this canvas, monumental jagged peaks dwarf a group of figures, likely Miwok people, who had inhabited the valley for millennia. As the artist painted, the government sought to protect the land, eventually forming a National Park in 1890. The Miwok lived there until they were forced to leave in 1969." - (The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York)
