The featured works exemplify this very sentiment. By Albert Bierstadt’s Clear Lake, California we see the serene blue waters of one of many oldest lakes in North America. Homer Dodge Martin’s On the Hudson highlights the tranquil nature of the riverside with delicate colours and vigorous foliage, whereas Sanford Robinson Gifford emphasizes the ability of an impending storm by way of intense darkish clouds and coursing waves in Storm King on the Hudson. And, in Grand Canyon, Thomas Moran captures the breathtaking scale of this magnificent pure web site. Because the passing of time continues to change the nation’s panorama, these work have remained very important items of our historic framework.
