About the piece
Painted around 1890 by Thomas Hill, this evocative work captures the grand scale of the Yosemite Valley. Hill, a preeminent figure of the Hudson River School's late phase, uses a moody palette and soft, misty light to emphasize the ethereal quality of the waterfall as it crashes against the rocks, set against the iconic silhouette of Half Dome.
