In 1859 Albert Bierstadt embarked on his first trip to the western reaches of the United States. This journey proved the start of the New Bedford-bred artist's life-long love affair with the West and his ascension as its premier interpreter. Bierstadt's vision of the American wilderness - one of grandeur, vastness and monumentality uniquely representative of the New World - would hold different meanings for different generations of audiences. At the height of his career in the 1860s audiences saw his landscapes as testaments to the inviolability of territorial expansion and development. Decades later, his paintings were seen as poignant reminders of what industrialization threatened.
