Kolb Studio stands on the South Rim of the Grand Canyon in Grand Canyon Village, where Ellsworth L. Kolb and Emery C. Kolb established a home and photographic business in 1904 after arriving in 1902. Expanded repeatedly through 1926 and operated until 1976, it became closely associated with the brothers’ canyon photography, especially images of mule riders, and with their 1911 Colorado River journey, which they filmed. After Emery Kolb’s death, the National Park Service acquired the building, and later renovation and restoration preserved it for public use. It now houses an art gallery, bookstore, and information center near the Bright Angel Trail.
