Albert Bierstadt was born at Solingen, near Desseldorf, Germany in 1830. When he was only two years old, his parents moved to Massachusetts. At the age of 23, he returned to Desseldorf to study art where he learned the academic treatment of subject and light, precision and naturalism that is characteristic of Bierstadt's work. Returning to the United States in 1857, he traveled through the West on six different occasions between 1859 and 1889.
Bierstadt's brother was a photographer and accompanied the artist on some of his excursions across the continental United States. Bierstadt himself made many photographs of the splendor and grandeur that so overwhelmed him in his travels. He in turn was determined to portray those grandiose landscapes to residents of the East. He also was known to change his mind about his landscapes, or alter them by painting over mountain ranges, changing the 'location' of an individual work.
Bierstadt was a Luminist, or second-generation member of the Hudson River School of landscape painting, and he founded the Rocky Mountain School of landscape painting
