About the piece

Thomas Cole, the founder of the Hudson River School, expertly captures the soft radiance of an American morning in this 1844 oil painting. The composition leads the eye from a rugged, tree-framed foreground across the lush forests of the Catskills to the iconic Mountain House and the tranquil lakes beyond.
