EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white etching, titled "The Coyote - Arizona, 1880," is a masterpiece created by the renowned American artist Thomas Moran. Moran, known for his breathtaking landscapes, showcases his exceptional talent in this intricately detailed depiction of the American Southwest. The image transports us back in time to the late 19th century, as we gaze upon the arid Arizona landscape, complete with towering rocks, gnarled trees, and a solitary coyote. Moran's use of the etching technique, specifically drypoint and roulette with sandpaper on cream wove paper, adds texture and depth to the image. The etching process involves drawing on a metal plate with a sharp tool, then inking and pressing the plate onto paper. Moran's skillful application of this technique results in an exquisite level of detail, from the individual plants and rocks to the fur on the coyote's back. The scene is set against a backdrop of a vast, desolate landscape, with the sun casting long shadows over the rocks and trees. The coyote, a symbol of the American West, stands proudly in the foreground, his piercing eyes fixed on something in the distance. Moran's "The Coyote - Arizona, 1880" is not only a stunning work of art but also a testament to the rich cultural and natural heritage of the United States. This etching is a must-see for any art enthusiast, history buff, or anyone interested in the American West. It has been exhibited in various galleries and museums, including the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences. The image is a reminder of the beauty and complexity of the natural world and the importance of preserving our heritage for future generations.
