Strong contrasts between light and shadow emphasize the canyon’s depth and scale, showcasing Byxbe’s mastery of line and atmospheric perspective.

Byxbe’s landscapes reflect the American tradition of romantic realism, combining precise draftsmanship with a deep appreciation for the Western wilderness. This example is pencil titled lower left and signed lower right, and is handsomely presented in a period oak frame with a wide mat.

This etching is offered individually but also forms part of a coordinated set of four original Lyman Byxbe prints, unified in scale, subject matter, and presentation.
