Emerald Pool, in the Peabody-River Glen, is one of the vivid thermal features that drew early visitors to Yellowstone, its green water set against the steam and mineral-stained ground around it. The gallery groups this view with images of the region made in the 1870s, when government surveys sent photographers and painters into the Rockies. Work by figures such as William Henry Jackson and Thomas Moran helped persuade Congress to protect the area, and Yellowstone became the first national park in 1872. The picture is worth studying for how it balances the restless ground with the still, colored water.
