Mather Point

Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona

Looking Down into the Grand Canyon from Mather Point, Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona

No photograph can truly do justice to the sheer size of the Grand Canyon. I've opted for a different strategy with this composition by doing a tighter crop on the erosion of the canyon caused by the mighty Colorado River.

Mather Point is one of the most popular viewing areas in the Grand Canyon. It offers visitors a breathtaking panoramic view of the canyon, including the Bright Angel Canyon, the Colorado River, and the North Rim of the canyon. The viewpoint is located on the South Rim of the canyon and is easily accessible by foot or by shuttle bus. The viewpoint is named after Stephen Tyng Mather, the first director of the National Park Service.

Mather Point is an ideal spot for visitors to get their first glimpse of the Grand Canyon and to take in the vastness and grandeur of the canyon. The viewpoint is particularly popular during sunset and sunrise, when the colors of the canyon walls are at their most vibrant. Visitors can also see the famous rock formations such as the Vishnu Temple and the Wotans Throne from this viewpoint.

The viewpoint also has an overlook with a railing and several benches for visitors to sit and take in the view. It is also a great spot for photography. Visitors can also find a visitor center nearby, which provides information about the park and its geology, culture, and history.

Museum-Quality: TruLife® Acrylic Face Mount Print - Ready To Hang

Museum-Quality: TruLife® Acrylic Face Mount Print - Ready To Hang

The most luxurious of fine art prints, TruLife® Acrylic face mount prints have a 3d-like appearance due to the print being sandwiched between museum-quality acrylic and a solid backer medium. The paper is specifically made for face mounted prints and features a pearl-like luminescence. When light hits the acrylic, it refracts through the artwork and gives off an appearance of having been illuminated from within. These are the most vibrant and detailed prints I offer. Acrylic prints are best suited for hanging in homes.

I custom sign all individual prints with a digital signature for provenance unless requested otherwise

This hand-polished, ready-to-hang print includes a 1/8" acrylic face mount with a clear acrylic or Comatex backing and a back mounted floating frame.
