The Story
This painting captures the beautiful, stark, wild, and barren landscape of Southern Utah. Brigham Young called the pioneer saints to settle Saint George and the outlying areas. He knew the saints would soon be in short supply of cotton due to the Civil War, and for this reason, he established the Saint George Cotton Mission of 1861. This area would become known as “Utah’s Dixie.”
