EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Lake, Wind River, c. 1837" by Alfred Jacob Miller takes us back to the early 19th century in North America. The artwork showcases a stunning landscape of the Wind River Range, also known as the "Winds" nestled within the Rocky Mountains. Miller and Sir William Drummond Stewart embarked on an expedition with trapper Thomas Fitzpatrick through old Nebraska Territory along the Oregon Trail. Their journey led them to one of the last fur trappers rendezvous in what is now Wyoming's Green River Valley. In this painting, Miller skillfully captures the beauty of nature with his pencil, watercolor, and gouache techniques on paper. The vibrant colors bring to life a serene lake surrounded by lush grass and towering mountains. The presence of trees adds depth and tranquility to this picturesque scene. As we admire this artwork, we are transported to a time when exploration and discovery shaped American history. It serves as a reminder of the vastness and grandeur that awaited those who ventured into uncharted territories during this era. Through Miller's artistry, we can appreciate not only the natural wonders but also gain insights into trade relations between Native Americans and traders like Fitzpatrick from the American Fur Company. This print is housed at Joslyn Museum in Omaha, Nebraska – a testament to its historical significance within American art heritage.
