The work includes illustrations by arguably the two greatest American topographical artists to record this era of westward expansion: William Holmes and Thomas Moran.<br/> <br/>The atlas includes eight beautifully executed maps of the region on twelve sheets as well as the ten sheets of views. The views include a number of images that are designed to form larger continuous panoramas. The greatest of these is Holmes' view from Point Sublime in the Kaibab; the three chromolithographed sheets numbered XVI-XVII if joined would form a single panoramic view with an image area measuring approximately 17 x 90 inches. It is interesting to note that the first of these sheets includes what may be a self-portrait and portrait respectively of Holmes and Dutton: two figures are visible at the edge of the canyon one is seated and clearly sketching Holmes whilst the second figure bends down to examine his companion's work Dutton. W.H. Holmes whom William Goetzmann calls "the greatest artist-topographer and man of many talents that the West ever produced.his artistic technique was like no other's. He could sketch panoramas of twisted mountain ranges sloping monoclines escarpments plateaus canyons fault blocks and grassy meadows that accurately depicted hundreds of miles of terrain. They were better than maps and better than photographs because he could get details of stratigraphy that light and shadow obscured from the camera.his illustrations for Dutton's Tertiary History of the Grand Canon District are masterpieces of realism and draftsmanship as well as feats of imaginative observation." The team assembled to carry out this geological survey of the Grand Canyon included some outstanding talents: C.E.Dutton the scientist; Jack Hilliers the photographer and of course Holmes and Moran as artist-topographers. The intention of the survey was strictly scientific but as Dutton writes in his preface "I have in many places departed from the severe ascetic style which has become conventional in scientific monographs." This is also true of Moran and Holmes: both were clearly inspired by their subjects. The overall result is of a quality that would not be possible today. As Wallace Stegner wrote in his introduction to the 1977 reprint "Later specialization has eliminated from scientific publications most of the elements that make The Tertiary History so charming. No report written as this one is written would now be published by any government bureau. No illustrators like Moran and Holmes would be permitted to illustrate it. A great book. The Tertiary History has kept its value precisely because it does not specialize."<br/> <br/>Francis P.

Editions Littéraires de France, Paris, 1945. In/4 en feuilles, couverture rempliée sous chemise et étui cartonné de l’éditeur, 61 illustrations coloriées au pochoir de Guy Arnoux, 154 p. Un des 50 ex. avec une suite de hors-texte en couleur. Monod 2313. Guy Arnoux : 1886 - 1951, artiste, illustrateur et graphiste français. Il a illustré près de quatre-vingts livres dont plusieurs grands formats d'une remarquable qualité d'impression chez Devambez. À l'issue de la Guerre de 1914-18, il participe à de charmants petits livres pour les enfants. Entre 1912 et 1925 il collabore à la célèbre revue de mode La gazette du bon ton. Il s'est intéressé aux domaines les plus variés de l'art décoratif : décors pour les paquebots (dont le Lafayette en 1930), publicités, jeux, affiches, menus, programmes, costumes, éventails, foulards, et même des chaussures. Il laisse derrière lui un caractère d'imprimerie, intitulé Guy-Arnoux capitale, qu'il a réalisé en 1914 à la demande de Georges Peignot pour la Fonderie G. Peignot & Fils. Issu d'une famille de militaires, l'armée et le patriotisme constituent ses thèmes favoris. En 1921, il est nommé peintre officiel de la marine. Son trait est reconnaissable entre tous : un cerne noir et de larges aplats, très souvent réalisés au pochoir. Il est le représentant d'un nouvel art populaire, à la fois moderne et traditionnel. C'est sans doute le dernier grand imagier français.
