About the piece
Painted in 1866 by Frederic Edwin Church, this masterpiece captures the atmospheric grandeur of a tropical rainstorm's aftermath. A magnificent double rainbow spans a deep valley filled with mist, illuminating rugged cliffs, a distant mountain peak, and verdant palm trees in the foreground. Church, a leading figure of the Hudson River School, expertly uses light and scale to evoke the sublime beauty of the natural world.
