Old Faithful is the subject here, and the picture shows the moment its column of hot water rises from the cone while visitors stand close by to watch. The geyser in Yellowstone National Park has erupted at fairly regular intervals for as long as people have recorded it, which made it one of the first natural wonders visitors reached by rail and road after the park was established in 1872. Early photographs like this one document how crowds gathered on the boardwalks and cone to see it, a scene that shaped the park's growth as a tourist destination.
