American Paintings of the Nineteenth Century (A ^APublication of the National Gallery of Art, Washington)

This volume is filled with spectacular landscape paintings by the Hudson River school artists Bierstadt (Lake Lucerne), Church (Morning in the Tropics), Cole, and Durand. Numerous marine paintings, Heade’s view of nature, several portraits by Eakins, and Homer’s critically acclaimed Breezing Up (A Fair Wind) are included as well, thoughtfully presented and richly illustrated.
