In the mid-1800s, a group of painters based in New York turned their focus to the theme of the natural landscape to demonstrate the beauty of the wilderness. Their work enjoyed a popular national success that no other group of artists has achieved since. This seminal survey of the artists marks the first presentation of the outstanding collection at the New-York Historical Society. It features works by all the greatest artists of the group, including Thomas Cole, Asher Durand, Albert Bierstadt, and Frederic Church. Accompanying a major traveling exhibition, the book is also timed to coincide with the 400th anniversary of Henry Hudson’s first voyage up the Hudson River.

- I purchased this because I wanted a book about the New-York Historical Society and its colleciton. The text about the Hudson River School was interesting and different from other books I have. Plenty of high quality color illustrations.
- This is a beautifully balanced book, blending relevant and insightful text with more than 100 gorgeous reproductions paintings. I love this book.
- This is an AMAZING book! So much information about the artworks and artists! Lots of beautiful reproductions as well! It was a gift and she ABSOLUTELY Loved it! I would highly recommend it!
- I was looking for a detailed overview of the artists of the Hudson River School.
This was just what I wanted. It starts in New York and goes up the river in location and
forward in history. Eventually going beyond the Hudson to the West and South America.
A lot of the understanding of art comes from the history context. This book had an excellent
blend of both. Very helpful to understand the motivations and meanings. It put this genre
in context with the other movements in the 19th century. It also lead me into purchasing
deeper monographs on the artists that I liked. - Great book for those who like the Hudson River School!
- Gorgeous color reproductions, insightful historical context. The definitive guide to the artists of the Hudson River School. I love it!
- The plates are gorgeous
- Great book! Nice pictures. But mine (hardcover) came in warped.
