Our Great Uncle, William F. Paskell was one of the last of the Hudson School painters!! We are and were so fortunate to have had him in our lives! thank you for sharing this very important part of Art History of the United States!
Thanks you so much! I have to make a presentation about this and this is super helpful! (I looked at your website and your paintings, you are extremely talented! Keep doing this please!)
Thanks to the Hudson River School, Acadia National Park came to be. The art of Thomas Cole and Frederic Church put Mount Desert Island on the map, attracting its very first tourists (the rusticators). Thank you, art 🖼️
Having a presentation due soon, i have been searching everywhere for videos on The Hudson River school. No videos were actually informative in a well spoken way like this. Thank you! you are a life saver. Just one question, do you have a timeline of when each of these things happened?
Happy to help! I do not have a timeline per-say, however it all started with Thomas Cole who was born in 1801 and active as an artist starting in the 1820's, then the movement was pretty much wrapped up by 1875. So 1825-1875 is a good time bracket. Bierstadt/Church gained their fame in the 1850's.
Not really... "America" did not exist as an entity prior to European settlement. Of course you had different people groups creating artwork, but it wasn't America as we know it today.
By the name of their ethnic group/tribe? When people use the term "American Art", they are most often referring to artwork made within the context of the country, United States of America. In that case, the Hudson River School was the first true "American" art movement, as it was distinct from the work in Europe at the time. I'm guessing people in the Algonquin nation would prefer their artwork be known as "Algonquin", not "American".
Please mention Thomas Moran…better yet come to East Hampton and visit his house studio with the East Hampton Historcal society. Private tours also given.
Very nice, I'd love to visit. Yes he was associated with that school, although his focus was more on western landscapes similar to Bierstadt. Wonderful pieces.
When I was 11 I joined The Boy Scouts. Every month I got to go camping one weekend and 2 weeks in Summer. So I fell in love with The Catskills and would search for boooks on The Catskills in The Library. I saw all these photos and my goal was to hike in the same places. By the 70's I was back packing all over the 700,000 acres of The Catckill Park. I have been to every peak and know all the trails which were once paths The Native Americans used. In 2004 I at last moved to The Catskills full time and in 1971 lived in a Commune. In 2004 I decided to become an Artist and capture the Beauty of it all. Since 2004 I have taken over 1/4 million photos. I have posted them on Social Media since way before My Space. My idea was to post them along with a famous Quote that would match the photo. I have never had a show or sold any of my work. Never wanted MONEY to be any part of my Art. I firmly believe Art is for The People and a gift. Also I knew my photos were documenting something very special we would lose soon. Sadly that has come to pass and someday people will see my photos and say....Oh My God it was so beautiful. Thomas Cole and Monet had a Huge infulence on my style. None of my photo are filtered and I use a Cannon 35 MM set on Manual. BTW i will be 73 this May and can no longer hike since I am disabled. I am far from bitter since I did it all and have some amazing memories. Also when I worked for numerous Brokerage houses in Wall Street the Orignals of Thomas Coles work hang in many board rooms.

Wow what an experience! Sounds like you really made the most of it. I’ll try to find your social media to see some images. I found Platte Clove to be a fascinating and intimidating place while I was there. A local couple showed me a way to the base of Bridal Veil Falls, very beautiful.

For sure! It is amazing the impact art has had on our National Parks and overall national identity. Hope I can make it to Acadia someday.

Native Americans were here making art for centuries before the Hudson River school artists. Their are is truly the first American art movement!
Not really... "America" did not exist as an entity prior to European settlement. Of course you had different people groups creating artwork, but it wasn't America as we know it today.
What do you call the art movements of native people here on this continent before 1776?

The background music to this is most off-putting and unsuitable.
