About the piece
Painted in 1838, Thomas Cole’s 'View of Schroon Mountain' is a definitive example of American Romanticism. The work juxtaposes the enduring permanence of the sharp mountain peak with the fleeting brilliance of autumn foliage and the turbulent, light-pierced clouds of a receding storm, celebrating the wild grandeur of the New York wilderness.
