Excerpts

Introduction A distinct painting development with regard to the American west's Wasatch Range emerged in the nineteenth century and persists even today. These "Painters of the Wasatch" have had several motives and have established many precedents through their artistic interpretations of this mountain subject matter. This book presents for the first time a survey of those early painters who formed and have carried forward an expression of nature's mighty gift to both visitors and residents of Utah. The Rocky Mountain School and Painters of the Wasatch were related, but not as a national phenomenon in the first instance and not merely one of its "regional" echoes in the second. The distinct painting development connected with Utah's Wasatch that emereged in the nineteenth century is directly, and by each generation, linked to landscape paintings being done even today. This book presents for the first time a sequence of painted scenes firmly positioned within the context of ordered Wasatch environments; the artists who form this group we call Painters of the Wasatch.
