LSB Home Themes NYS Art History Theme Site Map Art of the Hudson River School The artists involved in the Hudson River School were brought together by their deep love of nature in landscape. They felt the wondrous natural beauty of the gorges and highlands found in the Hudson River Valley were "direct manifestations" of God, and they sought to render and paint exactly what they saw. Artists of the Hudson River School found the landscapes in America more inspirational than the widely-painted landscapes of Europe. They also agreed that a landscape was a greater art form than a protrait or historical narrative. The Hudson River School was part of the Romantic period in the United States which began about 1825 and ended about 1875. Some of the most famous artists from the school are Winslow Homer, Fredric Church and Thomas Cole. [Example Images?] Resources Howat, John. The Hudson River and its Painters.

The exhibition showcases the depth and richness of the New-York Historical Society's collection of paintings and works on paper by renowned artists of the Hudson River School of landscape painting. Thomas Cole, long considered the founder of the Hudson River School and the father of 19th century American landscape as a whole, takes center stage in this exhibition with his seminal five-painting series, The Course of Empire. Commissioned by the pioneering American art collector, Luman Reed, the series was a culminating achievement in the artist's career, embodying ideas and approaches to landscape that profoundly influenced scores of other Hudson River School artists, many of whom are featured in the exhibition. The exhibition, sponsored by the New York State Museum Institute and HSBC, features 40 paintings and 11 other works on paper, including engravings and lithographs. Artists represented include several of Cole's devoted followers and friends, most notably Frederick Edwin Church, Asher Brown Durand, Jasper Francis Cropsey, John Frederick Kensett, and Martin Johnson Heade.

HUDSON RIVER SCHOOL T he first coherent school of American art, the Hudson River painters, helped to shape the mythos of the American landscape. Beginning with the works of Thomas Cole (1801-1848) and Asher B. Durand (1796-1886) and evolving into the Luminist and late Romantic schools, landscape painting was the prevalent genre of 19th century American art. THE OXBOW by Thomas Cole With roots in European Romanticism and with correspondences to European painters such as the Nazarenes and Caspar David Friedrich in Germany or John Constable and Joseph Turner in England, the Hudson River painters, nonetheless, set about to heed Emerson's call "to ignore the courtly Muses of Europe" and define a distinct vision for American art. The artists who came to maturity in the years of egalitarian Jacksonian democracy and expansion translated these ideals into an aesthetic that was sweeping and spontaneous. Like the vast nation that lay before them, which they celebrated not chauvinistically but with a sense of awe for its majestic natural resources and a feeling of optimism for the huge potential it held, the Hudson River painters depicted a New World wilderness in which man, minuscule as he was beside the vastness of creation, nevertheless retained that divine spark that completed the circle of harmony.

H udson River School - A group of American landscape painters of the mid-nineteenth century, who took a Romantic approach to depicting the Hudson River Valley, and of the Catskill, Berkshire, and White Mountains, as well as lands further west. As the American frontier moved westward, the Hudson River painters' views of this expanding territory found an enthusiastic audience . Their pictures were often brashly theatrical, embracing moral or literary associations. Many painters of this school were influenced by their reading of a book, Essay on the Nature and Principles of Taste by Archibald Alison. In his book Alison claims that the beauty and grandeur of unspoiled nature can inspire good moral qualities. Examples of their works: Thomas Birch (American, 1779-1851), The Narrows, New York Bay oil on wood panel , 20 x 26 3/4 inches (50.8 x 68 cm), Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, CA. Thomas Doughty (American, 1793-1856), Denning's Point, Hudson River , c. 1839, oil on mounted canvas , 24 x 30 inches (60.96 x 76.20 cm), Butler Institute of American Art, Youngstown, OH. Asher B.

The Hudson River School "Writing of Claude Lorrain, an artist against whom the Hudson River painters measured themselves on their excursions abroad, Roger Fry said, "Claude's view of landscape is false to nature in that it is entirely anthropocentric. His trees exist for pleasant shade; his peasants to give us the illusion of pastoral life, not to toil for a living. His world is not to be lived in, only to be looked at in a mood of pleasing melancholy or suave revery." But I wonder if there ever was a form of landscape painting that is not "false" in this sense. The landscapes we represent are in effect texts in which our feelings and beliefs about nature, and hence about ourselves as inside and outside nature, are inscribed. According to Wen Fong, Travelers in a Wintry Forest These were works of high Romanticism, illustrations, so to speak, of texts such as Coleridge's "Frost at Midnight":

Orlando Museum of Art Orlando, FL http://www.omart.org T he Orlando Museum of Art (OMA) exhibits July 25 - September 26, 1999. The collection includes paintings by a group of artists from the Hudson River Valley who first established the tradition of American landscape painting. Known as the Hudson River School, the paintings emerged in the 1820s and have been instrumental in shaping Americans' views towards art and nature. Rather than nature serving as a back drop for history paintings or portraits, the artists from the Hudson River School illustrated the changing power and beauty of the American wilderness. This was evident through their dramatic depictions of nature and subjects ranging from sublime views of wilderness to pastoral scenes and pictures with moral messages. At the height of the movement, paintings were meant to celebrate the presence of God in nature. The artists saw the natural American environment as a source for divine expression and inspiration. Organized by the Albany Institute of History and Art, this 26 painting collection includes works from renowned artists such as: Thomas Cole Asher Durand Frederic Edwin Church Jasper Cropsey ... David Johnson and George Inness . The artists were chosen for the exhibition to demonstrate how the meaning and importance of these works have changed over time.

Beginning with Thomas Cole in 1825 and ending by the late 1870s, the Hudson River School was known for its dramatic depictions of nature and subjects ranging from sublime views of the wilderness to pastoral scenes and allegorical pictures with moral messages. At the height of the movement in the 1840s, these paintings were meant to celebrate the presence of God in nature. In keeping with the tenets of Romanticism, these artists saw the natural American environment as a source for divine expressions. By the end of the nineteenth century, interest in the Hudson River School declined, and the new paintings were considered old-fashioned. However, after World War I, there was a renewal of interest, sparked by patriotism, and these American landscapes were viewed as evidence of the simplicity and independence of life in the United States, symbolizing American strength and individualism.

Hudson River School Alyson Greenlee In the foreground are darkly lit birch trees sporting orange and yellow leaves. Patches of moss and tangles of roots meet a rocky shoreline. In the distance, the sunlight reveals mountaintops. Ominous clouds allow but one stream of light to penetrate, and it hits the surface and casts light over the entire body of water. It was a style of painting never before seen and it came to be called The Hudson River School style. Founded by artist Thomas Cole in 1825, the style involved the use of intensely rich, luministic colors. The works were painstakingly detailed and brought feeling to the landscapes. This artistic approach became popular during what is commonly referred to as the Romantic Period, when our nation was still young. Americans were yearning for artistic identity. Artists were looking for exciting and unique American images, and the Hudson River readily supplied them. The wilderness look of the region attracted many painters. The birth of the Hudson River School style launched an era in which museums and galleries focused on American art rather than European art for the first time. Importantly, the school helped make Manifest Destiny a popular idea, and thus contributed to our nation's western expansion. Several well-known artists got their starts as students of the Hudson River School, including Jasper Francis Cropsey with his famous "Autumn on the Hudson." By the 1870s, the Hudson River School style was considered unfashionable and tedious. Nearly all of the works of this style had disappeared. Today, however, Hudson River School style paintings frequently sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars and are as highly esteemed as ever.

Introduction The Hudson River School represents the first native school of American Art. Dating from the 1820s, it was a loosely organized group of painters who took as their subject the unique naturalness of the American continent, starting with the Hudson River region in New York, but eventually extending in time and space all the way to California and the 1870s. The time period in which the school's artists were active was a time of momentous social, political and economic change in American history, and the work of the Hudson River School artists represents part of the process of national self-conceptualization taking place in those years. In the course of its fifty year history, the paintings of the Hudson River School spoke in symbolic language to both a great hopefulness and a wistful remnicience of the American experiment, a celebration of the primeival American landscape, the entrance of technology into that landscape, and eventually sorrow at its passing, to both a belief in a Provinically ordained destiny and the crisis of the Civil War. Despite, or perhaps as a result of this fluidity of meaning, these landscape paintings lay claim to an important place in American art history and in the American cultural consciousness. They represent the undeniable place that nature has and continues to occupy in the American imagination. During his travels in America

Hudson River Artists Joanna Longcore The Hudson River School influenced many artists of the nineteenth century. Many of these artists often studied, worked, and traveled together. Some of these artists include: Albert Bierstadt Albert Bierstadt was only two years old when his family immigrated to America and settled in Massachusetts. He always had an interest in becoming an artist, and succeeded even though his parents tried to persuade him away from this career. In 1853 he traveled to Europe to study at the Dusseldorf Academy in Germany, where he met fellow Hudson River School artists such as Whittredge and Gifford. In 1858 he was made an honorary professional member of the National Academy, and in 1860 he was elected a full member to the National Academy of Design. He is best well known for his huge panoramic landscapes of the unsettled Midwest, although he was also an influential member of the Hudson River School of Art. Some of his most famous paintings include "Garden of the Rockies", "The Bombardment of Fort Sumter", "Yosemite Valley", and "Lower Yellowstone Falls". John Casilear John Casilear began to study engraving when he was only 15 years of age. When his teacher died he began to study in Asher Durand's studio with other pupils including John Kensett. Asher Durand was a founder of the Hudson River school of art.

"The great cultural project of the 19th century was to explore the relations between man and nature, to learn to see nature as the fingerprint of God's creation . . . No previous age had brought such passionate scrutiny to nature, from the highest Alp to the smallest pollen of grain . . ." Robert Hughes, American Visions (1997) Hudson River School The Hudson River School began in 1825 with the paintings of Thomas Cole . Artists like Cole, Asher Durand , and Thomas Doughty set about to heed Ralph Waldo Emerson's call "to ignore the courtly Muses of Europe" and define a distinct vision of America. Wilderness was something that Europe no longer possessed—it was uniquely American. These artists painted grandiose and detailed panoramas in the Hudson Valley and New England filled with awe and optimism often combined with a moral message. Human beings were minuscule in these vast compositions, but were nevertheless in harmony with nature. By the 1850's, there was a new generation of Hudson River School artists including
