During his years as a commercial illustrator on a trip sponsered by Field and Stream Magazine, Frank Tenney Johnson made his first trip to the Southwest in 1904. Taken with the effect of moonlight on the unique landscape, he wrote, "The sun sank behind the mountains on the western horizon, and I lingered while the moon came up in the east like a big silver disk; and I never saw a more beautiful night. The adobe houses shown up so clear and white in the approaching moonlight that I wanted to paint them just as I saw them. I could spend weeks here just painting." (as quoted in H. McCracken, The Frank Tenney Johnson Book, New York, 1974, p. 83) Johnson's moonlight scenes such as Moonlight in the Canyon became his trademark, and eventually he was able to move away from illustration to focus on painting his signature scenes of peaceful isolation.
