Landscapes

In the early part of the 19th century, landscape painting was also beginning to dominate American art. The Hudson River School artists, led by Thomas Cole and Asher B. Durand, with followers such as Frederic Edwin Church and Albert Bierstadt, embraced the Romantic viewpoint and created idealized visions of the country from Upstate New York to the epic terrain of the American West. By the beginning of the 20th century, romantic renderings of the landscape were being replaced by themes of urbanization, industry and a nostalgia for simpler times. In the 1920s, the Ashcan School focused on the gritty reality of city life; while in the ‘30s, Regionalist painters focused on Midwest scenes of rural and agrarian life. With the modernists, depictions of the landscape continued to evolve in innovative ways, as seen in works by Georgia O’Keeffe, Marsden Hartley, Charles Sheeler, Ralston Crawford, Charles Demuth, Joseph Stella, Edward Hopper, Milton Avery and many others. American landscapes from all eras remain one of the most highly-collected, timeless genres in the market.
