That a real place? That Santa Fe?

So I was going through the script one more time and I noticed something interesting. Jack’s first theater backdrop is merely described as “a park scene”, but his second one is an actual physical location. 

The Taos Mountains are, you guessed it, in New Mexico, about 80 miles north of Santa Fe. The range includes the highest peak (Wheeler Peak) in the state, but the southern portions are lower and less dramatic (a bit more like the shapes we see in the painting). Interestingly, Jack is not painting the Santa Fe mountains, which are a totally separate portion of the range. 

He’s pretty much doing an accurate recreation of Venado Peak (or maybe the West Spanish Peaks). So where on earth would he have seen/heard of this mountain?

Obviously, the frontier myth of the American West was a little less than accurate what with the tumbleweeds and stetson hats, but there were lots of pictures of it in late 19th century art. John Kensett’s American landscapes were viewable in the Met from 1872. Sets of stereographs from 1880 onward were fairly common, especially at the circus and Wild West shows that toured the east coast. Western Novels had been in America as long as Europeans had, and authors like Horatio Alger and Edward Eggleston illustrated their books. In 1893, illustrations by Joseph Henry Sharp appeared in Harper’s Weekly. 

In 1898, two American artists, Ernest L. Blumenschien and Bert Phillips, moved from NYC to Taos and fell in love with the "beauty and artistic promise of northern New Mexico.“ They (later) established the Taos Artists Colony there and on July 10, 1898, Harper’s Weekly ran a spread featuring Blumenschien’s illustrations of the people and landscapes of the area. 

So like, I’m not saying that Jack ripped pages out of newspapers and magazines and walked around all day with his nose stuck in cowboy art books but he totally did. The boy’s done research.
