This appears to be a photograph of Thomas Moran's 1875-1876 oil painting "Fiercely the Red Sun Descending/Burned his way along the Heavens," currently owned by the North Carolina Museum of Art, accession number 52.9.34. The painting was inspired by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's epic poem The Song of Hiawatha.
