Bright Angel Trail 1922

"Bright Angel Trail" is a 1922 woodcut by American artist Gustave Baumann (1881-1971). Baumann is known for his landscapes, particularly of the American Southwest. This print captures the rugged beauty of the Bright Angel Trail in the Grand Canyon, rendered in a simplified, almost abstract style. Baumann's use of color and texture creates a sense of depth and distance, highlighting the natural grandeur of the canyon. The artwork's minimalist design and focus on the landscape's essence speak to the artist's fascination with the natural world.
