After the first years of the Gold Rush, other explorers came to California and these people were hunting for the wealth of California’s natural wonders. These men and women hiked into the untouched California Backcountry and climbed mountains, descended into steep valleys, and as John Muir would say – enjoyed their RAMBLINGS through the mountains. Lets see if you can find out who they were, what they accomplished, and which of their work you like the best !

1.Carlton E Watkins spent nearly 50 years photographing the California Backcountry - and his greatest fame were his stunning mammoth plate pictures of Yosemite. Watkins was the master of the artistic, real, untouched nature photography style, and he was an intrepid hiker willing to go to extreme efforts to reach locations for a good view. His work was the first Western landscape photography to gain the stature of fine art, and he sold his work out of an elegant gallery in downtown San Francisco next door to the elegant Palace Hotel.

2.Albert Bierstadt - painter Albert Bierstadt was the next prominent artist to influence California landscape imagery, this time in large-scale oil paintings. He came to California and entered Yosemite in the spring of 1863. He already had established himself as a leader in the genre of Western landscape painters and was well known for his exquisite depictions of dramatic light and atmospheric conditions. He had been a part of a government expedition to the Rocky Mountains and had established a national reputation for his painting of those rugged landscapes.
Bierstadt saw Carlton E. Watkins's photographs on exhibit in an art gallery in New York in 1862, and by 1863, was outfitted for the journey into the Yosemite to paint these remarkable vistas. His first expedition into Yosemite was in the company of a group of artists a writer and a scientist, and it was a colorful bohemian adventure. They bought the best horses available in San Francisco, boarded a steam ship to Stockton, and headed into the foothills.
Their first stop was the mariposa grove where they spent a day sketching the trees - which were a difficult subject as it was hard to explain their true enormous size to the viewers of any painting. They then passed through Wawona, and lost heir breath when the trail turned suddenly and they had their first glimpse from Inspiration Point down into the remarkable valley. The writer with the group recorded that the name Inspiration Point "ha appeared pedantic, but we found it only the spontaneous expression of our own feelings on the spot …. We did not seem to be seeing from that crag of vision a new scene on the old familiar globe as a new heaven and a new earth into which the creative spirit had just been breathed." (Fitz Hugh Ludlow). And it was Watkins's photographs that helped them identify the different sights before them - El Capitan, North dome, Half Dome, and Cathedral Rocks. They sketched intently until the sun prepared to set.
William Keith was the leading artist in San Francisco at the end of the 19th century. His combination of artistic genius, business acumen, strong personality and hard work enabled him to build a prestigious reputation and a financially successful career.
It was the great naturalist John Muir who called William Keith a "poet-painter" in an article he published in 1875, referring to the poetic quality of Keith's art.
Landscape paintings were often compared to poetry in the 1800s … Keith turned gradually from the objective to the subjective, from accurate depictions of specific places to the use of landscape elements to express and evoke feelings.

3.The name of the painter Thomas Hill has long been linked with that of Yosemite Valley, California, his most frequent subject. When the artist was seventy, an art critic called him "The most ardent devotee at the shrine of Yosemite and the most faithful priest of the valley. “ His enormous Yosemite panoramas were purchased by many of the social and business leaders of San Francisco, and one of his landscapes won a bronze medal at the Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia.
Born in England, Hill moved to Massachusetts with his family in 1844. He lived in Boston, Philadelphia, and Cambridge before moving to San Francisco in 1861. Hill first visited Yosemite Valley in 1862, a fact recently confirmed by the diary of a nineteenth-century tourist. Following a visit to Europe in 1867 and a stay in Boston from 1868 to 1872, Hill made the San Francisco bay area his home, actively participating in the early artistic circles of the city and traveling frequently to Yosemite. In 1883, he established his first summer studio at Yosemite, and in 1886 he moved to Wawona, fifteen miles southwest of the valley, where he maintained a studio and residence the rest of his life.

4.As California went through the transition from the Spanish held Mission system, to the Mexican Government, to Statehood, the Mission system went through a period of neglect as it was separated from the Catholic Church in Spain - both financially and politically. In this period of decline, the Missions began to crumble, and the artists drawn to the region discovered these crumbling adobe walls, mossy red tile roofs, and quiet cool interior cloisters ( courtyards surrounded by arched walk ways ) excellent subjects for paintings, drawings and etchings. Henry Miller sketched the California Missions in 1856

5.When the Southern Pacific Railroad reached Southern California in the 1880s, the Railroad began developing a marketing campaign to attract East Coast Americans to the West, via train, for vacation adventures. The Railroad commissioned paintings by American artists to use as promotional images to attract passengers to the railroad, and to the Channel region. With this wide public promotion of the region as a vacation destination, more and more painters made their way to the Channel region. New magazine devoted to Western Life also began to be published and developed a national audience, such as Sunset Magazine, which also commissioned artists works for its colorful covers, further spreading news of the exciting and beautiful lands bordering the Pacific.

6.California's Cup Of Gold
The golden poppy is God's gold,
The gold that lifts, nor weighs us down,
The gold that knows no miser's hold
The gold that banks not in the town,
But singing, laughing, freely spills
Its hoard far up the happy hills;
Far up, far down, at every turn,--
What beggar has not gold to burn!

Watkins had come to California as an eager 49er, via Panama, and in the company of Collis P. Huntington, who soon became a member of the Big Four millionaires. Watkins gained his first experience in photography by filling in at a portrait gallery, and soon found it would be the passion of his life. In 1861 he made his first trip to Yosemite, hauling a very large 18"x22" camera that took pictures of Yosemite that were the largest outdoor photographs in America at the time.

Today James Whistler is best known for his classic American portrait of his mother in a rocking chair. But in his time, Whistler was also employed as an engraver for the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey project. In 1854, soon after California became a state, Whistler was given the assignment to render an engraving of the east end of Anacapa Island. His pay rate was then $1.50 a day. Although he never visited the island, Whistler completed his assignment presumably from photographs and drawings taken by other artists. And he added a finishing touch that was soon to jeopardize his job. Over the Arch Rock on the engraving, Whistler added two flock of seagulls flying in V-formation. This artistic license was not appreciated by his employers, and he was subsequently fired from his position. When the drawing was reproduced again two years later, the seagulls were removed. Marsha Daily, President of The Santa Cruz Island Foundation, now owns a first edition engraved print that shows the original two flocks of seagulls hovering gracefully above the rocky island. The original as engraved by Whistler, while being an accurate scientific document, also captures some of the romance of the island thanks to the inclusion of those controversial birds, a reminder island wildlife.

5.When the Southern Pacific Railroad reached Southern California in the 1880s, the Railroad began developing a marketing campaign to attract East Coast Americans to the West, via train, for vacation adventures. The Railroad commissioned paintings by American artists to use as promotional images to attract passengers to the railroad, and to the Channel region. With this wide public promotion of the region as a vacation destination, more and more painters made their way to the Channel region. New magazine devoted to Western Life also began to be published and developed a national audience, such as Sunset Magazine, which also commissioned artists works for its colorful covers, further spreading news of the exciting and beautiful lands bordering the Pacific.
