Wyoming History in Art: David G. Paulley
In 1984 artist Dave Paulley approached The Wyoming Historical Society with a proposal to help celebrate the state's upcoming Centennial Celebration (July of 1990). Paulley partnered with the Historical Society to produce thirty-five paintings depicting scenes that would impact the social, political, and economic growth of the land chronicling Wyoming's transformation into "The Equality State" as it is now known.
