In 1867, photographer Eadweard J. Muybridge traveled with his large-format camera to Mariposa, California, to photograph Yosemite. During the trip, he produced dozens of glass-plate negatives, including his famous image of the Hutchings House, first known as the Upper Hotel, in the original Yosemite Village between the Four Mile Trail and Sentinel Bridge on the Merced River.
