William Henry Jackson, especially commissioned Denver and Rio Grande Railroad photographs: hand-tinted Marshall Pass and Mt. Ouray, and Lake San Cristoval, Colorado. MT. GOTHIC TOMES AND RELIQUARY, Rare Books and Western Americana

The numerous artistic hours devoted to the hand-tinting of this original image have intriguingly enhanced its photographic qualities to the point that it almost appears a multi-dimensional painting. From a distance, this image looks like a work of art; however, proximity reveals incredible photographic clarity and detail.

After consulting professionals at the Denver Art Museum, History Colorado, and the Western History Depart of the Denver Public Library, the general consensus is that the format for this original William Henry Jackson photograph is quite scarce. One hypothesis put forth is that this particular image was used as "salesman's sample" for Jackson's photographs and that it may have hung in a specially reserved photographer's train car (as depicted in the above photograph). Another concept put forth is that it was an exceptional promotion for the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad placed in depots or grand hotels along its routes.

"... But never again as during that all too short period when he and I were one person, when the fulfilled future and the wistful past were mingled in a single gorgeous moment -- when life was literally a dream...." F. Scott Fitzgerald, from 'Early Success,' The Crack Up, October 1937
