This is a well done and interesting Antique Old 19th c. Hudson River School NY Tonalist Landscape Oil Painting on canvas, depicting a sunset scene along the Hudson River in Upstate New York. A deep yellow hued sky, and dark clouds can be seen overhead. Below the skyline is a placid river, the foreboding Catskill mountains, a small sailboat, and several figures toiling around a small dock house Surrounding the scene is a forested green woodland, and multiple evergreen trees. Signed with the cryptic initials of: “O.E.(?)” in the lower right corner. I could not identify the artist, but perhaps you know more about them or their work? This piece likely dates to the 1880’s – 1890’s. Approximately 18 1/4 x 26 1/4 inches. Good condition for well over a century of age, with moderate scuffing, edge wear, pressure marks, and various spots of paint loss to the canvas (please see photos carefully.) Additionally, there are exposed nails which stick out of the painting on all four edges, which originally mounted this painting in a wooden frame that has sadly been lost to time. Acquired in Los Angeles, California, but this painting assuredly originated from New York or the Northeastern United States. If you like what you see, I encourage you to make an Offer.

About the Hudson River School: The Hudson River SchoolStarted: 1826Ended: 1870 Summary of The Hudson River SchoolSearching for a national style of art, the American landscape itself – large and untamed – was the primary focus of the Hudson River School painters. American expansion and Manifest Destiny imbued the untamed countryside with the symbolism of the country’s promised prosperity and limitless resources. The terrain provided an alternative to European culture and history; it became a picturesque, patriotic, and inspirational theme. This loosely connected group of painters explored the nation, returning to their New York studios to paint large-scale works that thrilled audiences and celebrated the awesome power of nature and the progress of man. Key Ideas & AccomplishmentsLong considered a profitable, but lowly, subject for serious artists (since it involved merely copying what was seen), landscape painting received new attention in the mid-19th century. Like Romantic painters in Britain and Germany, Hudson River School artists embraced the landscape as a meaningful subject, precisely as industrialization began to change terrains and reshape man’s connection to his environment. The Americans both championed these forces of modernization and lamented what was lost in the name of “progress.”Generations of American painters had returned to Europe for training and adopted the styles and subjects of Old World artists. The Hudson River School painters desired a more native tradition, painting recognizably American scenes. Personally and professionally, they formed networks with writers and philosophers to create a distinct American culture.Artists like Thomas Cole invested the landscape with symbolism, suggesting that these natural scenes could be transformed into meaningful allegories, as well as immersive and transformative experiences for the viewer. With their careful attention to realism and precise illusionism, as well as complex messaging and awe-inspiring vistas, the resulting canvases could be appreciated on both intellectual and emotional levels.The second generation of Hudson River School painters left the New York area to explore more far-flung regions of America. Their painting documented westward expansion and reinforced the concept of Manifest Destiny. During the Civil War, their majestic images of an unspoiled West provided hope for post-war reconciliation and the promise of expanses of wild country, full of promise and unscarred by battle.
