The Grand Teton

James Niehues’ sketch of the Grand Teton is a piece of art that can be admired by skiers and non-skiers alike. Bordered on the south end by Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, and to the north by Yellowstone National Park, the Teton Range is one of the most stark and rugged in the Rockies. So it’s no wonder that tourists flock from all around the country, and even the world to visit this natural wonder year-round. It’s home to unique wildlife - herds of bison roam the plains, and moose, elk, bighorn sheep, and mountain goats all populate the peaks and valleys of the park. And it’s home to some unique geological phenomena, the range rises so abruptly out of the flat valley that it’s easy to see how it was formed by overlapping tectonic plates.

"The 'Rembrandt of snow' has published a hefty coffee table book with a collection of nearly all of his hand-painted maps."




Timeless art for your home

Hand-painted maps require the best reproduction process available. Each illustration starts with a high resolution digital scan. It is then printed on museum quality cotton paper using the latest HDR ink-jet technology.
