About the piece
Painted in 1839 by Thomas Doughty, this work is a quintessential example of the Hudson River School's romanticized view of the American landscape. Doughty expertly uses a soft, warm palette to depict the transition from the rugged, shadowed rocks of the foreground to the ethereal, pink-tinged clouds over the distant Hudson River valley.
