| Considered a second generation Hudson River School painter and a
follower of John Kensett, James Suydam is known for his peaceful,
subtle, landscapes that give a poetic interpretation to nature in
styles of Tonalism and Luminism. In many of his paintings, he
explored aerial perspective and the effects of water meeting land as
well as light on these subjects, especially mid-day when the sky was
clear. Many of his works are low-horizoned panoramic views, but
small in actual size (showing 500 of 1608 characters). |
