Wind Canyon Theodore Roosevelt National Park Wall Art | Bison Print

Wind Canyon in Theodore Roosevelt National Park looks out over the most photographed bend of the Little Missouri River, and this print takes that view on a clear afternoon. Banded buttes step back in grey, cream and burnt scoria red, the river loops pale blue at their feet, and a herd of bison grazes across the gold prairie grass in the foreground.

Why you'll love it

• Painted in the golden-age national park poster style: the badland strata drawn as ruled horizontal bands, brushed grass in the foreground and bison reduced to solid dark silhouettes.
• It names the exact place. Wind Canyon, Little Missouri River, North Dakota, with the park date and the coordinates 46.97 N, 103.45 W set along the bottom edge.
• The Little Missouri River carved these badlands, and Theodore Roosevelt was redesignated a national park in 1978 on land where Roosevelt ranched in the 1880s.
• Slate blue, scoria red and prairie gold make a calm palette for a den, an office or a room with leather furniture.
• Drawn in the same style as the rest of the 63-park series, so several hang together as one set.

Styling it at home

The bison in the lower third give this print a focal point that most landscapes lack, so hang it at eye level where people will actually notice them. The dry gold grass sits happily against tan leather, saddle-brown wood and wool throws, while the cool blue buttes keep the whole thing from reading as rustic. It is a natural fit for a study or a games room, and a good counterweight to the greener parks in the series.

Shipping and care

Paper prints ship rolled in a rigid tube. Framed canvas arrives ready to hang with hardware fitted. Keep the print out of direct sunlight and wipe the surface with a dry, soft cloth.

FAQ

How is this different from the other Theodore Roosevelt prints in the shop? This is the Wind Canyon view, with the location and coordinates lettered at the foot of the poster. The other Theodore Roosevelt designs show different views in mid-century, oil painting and watercolour styles.

Is a frame included with the paper print? No. Paper prints ship unframed; the framed options are the framed canvas materials.
