Reflections of Trees at Dusk

About the Item

Much about this late 19th-century painting remains a mystery, including the name of the artist who only left their identity in a single-letter monogram. But the work's moody embrace of nature at sundown suggests the creator's inspiration derived from the Hudson River School. This group of American artists shared a vision from about 1825 to 1875 that this new continent's natural beauty could offer a sense of national identity, and for each individual, a sense of spiritual renewal. Perhaps you might appreciate a little spiritual renewal in this day and age, as well.
