This image is a decorative backdrop rather than a view of the park itself: a white scrolling damask pattern, a repeating design of stylized foliage and curves borrowed from figured woven silk and linen. Printed damask motifs were popular on 19th-century trade cards, mounts and borders, where they gave a finished, genteel look to a card. Because the pattern carries no scenery, it is best read as evidence of how souvenir and display materials from the Yellowstone region were dressed up for sale and presentation.
