The Majesty of the Grand Canyon

This beautiful work was originally published by OG Publishing in 1998, and is reprinted for the delectation of readers who might have missed it. About 100 paintings from the mid-1800s through the 1990s, presented in a horizontal format (11x9.25") to accommodate the grand horizons of the images, represent the stunning grandeur of the subject as well an inspiring variety of artistic responses over the decades. Kinsey's (American Art, U. of Iowa) text sets the historical context and identifies and discusses the artists and their work. Well chosen quotations from writers describing the delights of the Grand Canyon are interspersed throughout. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
