Lake Winnepesaukee Thomas Cole
(1801-1848) |
|
|
Thomas Cole is considered to be one of the founders of the first American school of painting, known as "The Hudson River School." Lake Winnepesaukee was painted early in his career, before his first influential trip to Europe (1829-1831). The painting illustrates Cole's early desire to depict nature as wild and sublime. Lake Winnepesaukee was composed from a sketch made on a trip through the White Mountains of New Hampshire. It was shown at the National Academy of Design in 1828 and was then owned by Cole's patron, Daniel Wadsworth. It was also engraved by Cole's friend, Asher B. Durand, and published in The American Landscape by William Cullen Bryant in 1830. site designed and hosted by knick.net | |
