Beschreibung

Embark on a captivating journey through the landscapes that shaped a nation in "Discovering America's Natural Beauty: A Journey Through the American Landscape." This immersive exploration of the Hudson River School, a pivotal movement in American art, unveils the profound impact of nature on the nation's artistic consciousness.

In the 19th century, as the United States expanded westward, a group of visionary artists emerged, captivated by the unspoiled beauty of the American wilderness. They were the Hudson River School artists, and their works would forever change the course of American art.

With brushstrokes imbued with passion and awe, Hudson River School artists sought to capture the grandeur of the natural world. They ventured into the untouched wilderness, from the majestic mountains to the tranquil rivers, translating their experiences onto canvas with remarkable skill and sensitivity.

Their paintings were not mere depictions of scenery; they were expressions of the American spirit, imbued with a sense of wonder and reverence for the land. These artworks reflected a deep appreciation for the natural world and a belief in the importance of preserving its beauty for future generations.

The Hudson River School played a pivotal role in shaping the American identity. In a young nation still searching for its own unique voice, these artists helped to define what it meant to be American. Their paintings depicted a land of boundless opportunity and limitless potential, a land where anything was possible. They celebrated the beauty and diversity of the American landscape, from the rugged mountains to the tranquil rivers, and in doing so, they helped to foster a sense of national pride and unity.

Beyond their artistic achievements, the Hudson River School artists were also pioneers in the field of environmentalism. By depicting the beauty and fragility of the natural world, they helped to raise awareness of the importance of conservation. Their works inspired people to appreciate the beauty of the wilderness and to take action to protect it. The Hudson River School artists were instrumental in shaping the American environmental movement, and their legacy continues to inspire people to this day.

"Discovering America's Natural Beauty" is a celebration of the Hudson River School and its enduring impact on American art, culture, and environmental consciousness. Through stunning reproductions of iconic artworks and insightful essays by leading scholars, this book offers a comprehensive exploration of this pivotal movement. It is a must-have for anyone interested in American art, history, or the natural world.

    "A gorgeous heartfelt examination and celebration." - Editor's Pick, Booklife Review of Publisher's Weekly 
    Art & Love is the memoir of a woman’s quest to master the ancient art of egg tempera painting, gain confidence as an artist and find lasting love. 
    It’s 1966 and unaware that a counterculture tsunami is brewing, Lora Arbrador arrives in Berkeley, California where she is introduced to egg tempera, a painting technique that combines colorful pigments with egg yolk. Lora falls in love with this luminous medium but cannot find a teacher to unravel its mysteries. Her love life is similarly marked with many failures. 
    Art and love converge when she falls for a tender, charismatic artist, but after their eight-month immersion in the great museums of Europe, Lora follows him into a commune that she later realizes has become a cult. 
    Set against a backdrop of huge cultural changes – from the counterculture of the 1960s and back-to-the-land movement of the 1970s, to the AIDS epidemic and sex underground of the 1980s – Art & Love is a journey of creative and emotional fulfillment that captivates, educates and entertains the reader. 
    Arbrador’s stunning artwork enhances the narrative, inspiring those grappling with their own artistic expression and longing for love. 
    Includes her bonus essay “Which Came First? A Taste of Egg Tempera History.”
