Description
A reproduction of the masterpiece by Frederic Edgar Church, “Storm in the Mountains” of 1847. This early work of Church was painted when he was twenty-one. He is probably doing homage to his teacher Thomas Cole who also painted blasted trees. This was a common motif among romantics and represents the power of nature and the fragility of life before that power. This work is currently at the Cleveland Museum of Art.
Frederic Church was the leading artist of the second generation of the Hudson River School. By the time of this work, he was the most famous contemporary American artist at the age of thirty-four years. He had been a student of Benjamin Cole. As tastes changed after 1865, Church’s popularity with the public began to fade but he continued to paint and was very comfortable due to the significant private wealth of his family. He died in New York City in 1900.
