Oil painting of Kolana Rock in Hetch Hetchy, painted by Thomas Moran from a sketch by John Muir.

This oil painting of Kolana Rock in Hetch Hetchy was painted by Thomas Moran from a sketch by John Muir. This was one of the images used in John Muir’s 1890 article “Features of the Proposed Yosemite National Park” that helped generate support for the passage of the park legislation. In 1935 the park received a significant donation from Moran’s daughter of his work in the national parks.
