William Henry Jackson: Mount Moran (1872)

After his successful 1871 expedition to Yellowstone, Ferdinand Hayden organized an exploratory trip to the Teton Range the following year.  Hayden named one of the mountains in the range after Thomas Moran who by now had established himself as a great American painter of the west.  Jackson took this picture of Mount Moran.
