Like so many well-entrenched, traditional as- sumptions, this one is unwarranted. J. Evetts Haley, in editing one of the extremely rare accounts of the cattle drives to Califor- nia which preceded the Texas-to-Kansas experiment by a decade and a half, slapped the blame for this misunderstanding squarely on the writings of Emerson Hough.

  • 50Th California International Antiquarian Book Fair
    50th California International Antiquarian Book Fair The First Published View of Yosemite: A Great Rarity of American Lithographic Views 1. Ayres, Thomas A.: THE YO-HAMITE FALLS, THIS MAGNIFICENT SCENE IS SITUATED IN THE YO-HAMITE VALLEY, NEAR THE SOURCE OF THE MIDDLE FORK OF THE RIVER MERCED, MARIPOSA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. IT IS THE HIGHEST WATERFALL IN THE WORLD - RUSHING OVER THE PRECIPICE, AT ONE BOLD LEAP IT FALLS 1,300 FEET, & THE WHOLE LEAP HIGHT [sic] FROM VALLEY IS 2,300 FEET. San Francisco: James M. Hutchings, printed by Britton & Rey, on stone by Kuchel & Dresel, 1855. Uncolored lithograph, 23 1/4 x 15 inches. Lightly toned. Expertly conserved at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, deacidified and backed with Japanese tissue. In very good condition. Matted. A landmark American image, this rare lithograph of Yosemite Falls is the first published view of Yosemite to reach the public. Thomas Ayres's view of Yosemite Falls is accurate and beautiful, and ably captures the magnificence of the waterfall, depicting the upper and lower falls from a slightly elevated position. The view is framed by trees and cliff edges so that the attention is concentrated toward the falls themselves. In the lower portion of the image the valley floor stretches toward the viewer, the Merced River cuts across the meadows, and the artist's companions are seen, their horses set free to graze. Ayres made his Yosemite drawings on the spot, using charcoal or black chalk on a prepared board, and his illustrations are expertly shaded. The sheer granite walls must have seemed astounding to a contemporary audience seeing the Yosemite Valley for the first time.
