内容説明
Hudson River School artists shared an awe of the magnificence of nature as well as a belief that the untamed American scenery reflected the national character. In this new work, color reproductions of more than 115 paintings capture the beauty and illuminate the aesthetic and philosophical principles of the Hudson River School painters. The pieces included in this volume reflect a period (1825-1875) when American landscape painting was most thoroughly explored and formalized with personal, artistic, cultural, and national identifications. Judith Hansen O'Toole reveals the subtleties and quiet majesty of the works and discusses their shared iconography, the ways in which artists responded to one another's paintings, and how the paintings reflected nineteenth-century American cultural, intellectual, and social milieus. Different Views is also the first major study to examine closely the Hudson River School artists' practice of creating thematically related pairs and series of paintings. O'Toole considers painters' use of this method to express different moods and philosophical concepts. She observes artists' representations of landscape and their nuanced depictions of weather, light, and season. By comparing and contrasting Hudson River School paintings, O'Toole reveals differences in meaning, emotion, and cultural connotation. Different Views in Hudson River School Painting contains reproductions of works from a range of prominent and lesser-known artists, including Jasper Francis Cropsey, Sanford Robinson Gifford, Asher B. Durand, Frederic Edwin Church, Albert Bierstadt, John Frederic Kensett, and John William Casilear. The works come from a leading private collection and were recently exhibited at the Westmoreland Museum of American Art.

Great guide to the Hudon River school paintings

Sometimes when looking at these landscape paintings you feel you are looking out a window or are in the landscape itself. It's beautiful to see the natural, the wilderness, especially for me (like many others) who are surrounded by machines all day long. O'Toole does fine job explaining each painting and its symbols. For example, deers are symbolic of wilderness while cows are symbolic of man's encroachment into the wild. Another example, a scene of a boat with hay being guided by a tugboat toward dark clouds (the top picture on the cover) appears to be "a metaphor for man himself being guided through the challenges of nature's perils and his persistence in working to tame them..."
I would recommend it.

It's a great book!

It is both beautiful and facinating, since it compares the styles specific to most of the artists of this era. It brings together the paintings that are meant to be reviewed together and makes them that much more amazing. It is a great book for lovers of the Hudson River School.
