About this Item

(Taos, New Mexico) "Pack Train Leaving Pueblo of Taos, New Mexico" being a chromolithograph from the monumental "Report on Indians Taxed and Not Taxed in the United States (Except Alaska)," Washington D.C., printed in colors, 1894. Image area 9"x7" on a 11.5"x8.75 sheet. Image after the painting by Henry Rankin Poor (1859-1940) produced by Julius Bien & Co., NYC. [++] "This illustration is probably the first bearing the name of Taos to be reproduced. Poore was in Taos in 1890 but he had been preceded by one well-known Western artist in 1881. Charles Craig sketched and painted at Taos in the summer of that year, but later in the same year settled in Colorado Springs where he spent the next 50 years of his life. With Harvey S. Young, he was the first resident artist of the Springs and his depiction of Western scenes won him not only a local but an international clientele."--Robert Taft. "The Pictorial Record of the Old West: the beginning of the Taos School of Art--The Beginning of the Taos School.".
