In addition to his work for Clarence King, Timothy O’Sullivan was also the primary photographer for George M. Wheeler’s Geological Survey West of the 100th Meridian, from 1871 to 1873. The 100th Meridian—which runs north–south from the middle of North Dakota into Texas—was considered the boundary between the moist East and the arid West. O’Sullivan focused on landscape views, river scenes, military forts, and American Indians.
