Trained at the Royal Academy in Munich from 1883 to 1896, Leigh illustrated for Scribner's Magazine upon his return to the United States. He traveled to the West beginning in 1906 and this painting may have resulted from sketches made on a Santa Fe Railroad sponsored trip to the Grand Canyon in 1908.
