The Rocky Mountains by Currier & Ives is a notable example of 19th-century American lithography, capturing the grandeur and majesty of the Rocky Mountain range. Currier & Ives, a prolific printmaking firm based in New York City, was renowned for producing hand-colored lithographs that depicted a wide array of subjects, including landscapes, historical events, and everyday life. Founded by Nathaniel Currier and later joined by James Merritt Ives, the firm operated from 1834 to 1907 and became a household name, often referred to as "the Grand Central Depot for Cheap and Popular Prints."

The Rocky Mountains lithograph is celebrated for its detailed and romanticized portrayal of the American West, a region that was largely unexplored and mysterious to many Americans at the time. The image typically features towering peaks, expansive valleys, and often includes elements such as rivers, forests, and wildlife, all rendered with a sense of awe and reverence for the natural world. This work reflects the 19th-century American fascination with westward expansion and the sublime beauty of the untamed wilderness.

Currier & Ives employed a team of skilled artists and lithographers who worked meticulously to create these prints. The process involved drawing the image on a lithographic stone, printing it onto paper, and then hand-coloring each print, making every piece unique. The Rocky Mountains lithograph would have been part of their extensive catalog, which was marketed to a broad audience, making art accessible to the middle class.

The popularity of Currier & Ives prints, including The Rocky Mountains, can be attributed to their ability to capture the spirit of the era and the collective imagination of the American people. These prints not only served as decorative art but also as historical documents that provide insight into the cultural and social values of 19th-century America. Today, Currier & Ives lithographs are highly valued by collectors and historians alike, appreciated for their artistic merit and their role in documenting the American experience.
