"We claim for America the freshness of a most
promising youth, and a species of natural radiance
that carries the mind with reverence to the source of
all that is glorious around us."
---James Fenimore Cooper, 1868
The name "All That is Glorious Around Us" was taken from the above quote by writer James Fenimore Cooper seemed to epitomize this most important art movement of the 19th century known as the
Hudson River School
"FISHING IN THE TWILIGHT WATERS" is a remarkable work that pictures a mid-view of a large lake at early evening. Although there are three fishermen in a boat fishing, the focus of the picture is the moon. The fishermen and the boat were added to show the majesticness of the sky and lake. Please note the many colors and wonderful brushwork in orchestrating the clouds and atmospheric conditions in the sky. The warm shades copper, reds, gold, and yellows are set off by the cool mint green background in the sky. All these colors and the reflection of the moon are reflecting again in the waters. There are tree sprouts and stubs sticking out of the water add to the natural ruggedness that is true to this environment. Light and atmosphere played a major role in the paintings of the Hudson River School artists. The Hudson River Artists all held the belief that nature was a benevolent nurturer. Nature is a way of God speaking to us in beauty and in grace. It is always the goal of the artist to convey to the viewer the forces, the vastness, and the beauty of nature and how the sight of such power and beauty affects human beings.
