Is there a more based art movement than the Hudson River Valley school?

best website for prints?

Saved.
You can really see beauty within a person's craft by the keen attention to detail and delicate effort taken.
The amazing thing is, an artist has absolute freedom of what he or she wants to create and yet these people choose real life, in its humble and pristine elegance.

Some things never change.

they look 10x more amazing in person because of their 'sloppiness'.

Suddenly pol loves lefty art. Maybe they'll start citing their hatred like a true scholar too some day

Literally Bob Ross.

I grew up in the Hudson River Valley, my school bus followed the river for about a mile.

REALISM IS NOT LEFTY.
You want to see modern art, go to France like I did and see the "Queen's Vagina." Its a bronze cornucopia shaped trumpet in the eyesight of the Eiffel Tower.

Fuck the French.

Beautiful damn these paintings

Friendly reminder that all art threads are 99% Ameribro posts. The mirage of European countries being bastions of culture has not survived the internet age.

albert bierstadt is good

This is some beautiful art.

Thomas Cole has been sent by God to bless us with his magnificent work. All Hudson River School artists deserve a big pat on the back for their contributions to American culture

Care to explain how this is leftist art?

Here are the weird horizon touching clouds again.

Bob Ross's paintings are always far too busy and I've never seen him create good water reflections.

Cole's best piece imo

Oh shit, I'm not used to his pre-American works

The dude that painted this is French and fell in love with America. They're not all bad. Good art can come from anywhere. It's when something sucks and is undeservedly pushed because for political/sociological reasons, that art sucks.

You ever seen one in real life? The format is very much a part of the composition.

It means something different to stand in a room and have one of these vistas fill up your field of view

This painting is 210x360 cm or 6ft by 11 ft roughly

What kind of mad man chooses pink and yellow for mountains and not only makes it work but makes seem like it is the most obvious choice in the world?

Personally I don't think any of the paintings in this series are better or worse than each other, I feel like they need to be experienced together for the full effect. Have you ever seen them in real life in the DC National Gallery? It's stunning

You are right.
That Frenchman has some talent too.

Have you ever seen a sunrise or a sunset near a mountain?

You dont enjoy standing in front of a landscape featuring ice bound shipwrecks and pondering the hostility of nature?

I need to know the artist

Just a hop skip and a jump from there to the College of Winterhold, user.

Underrated.

It's in the filename for my posts.

Mark Maggiori

Albert Bierstadt

Thomas Cole

Frederic Edwin Church

I love the muted implications of a utopian unsettled land waiting to be discovered and settled

There aren't places like this in the real world, but it pulls at the heart and sparks an ambition to seek it out.

I think heaven would be a vast silent country full of these landscapes, waiting for you to populate

It's no surprise the Australian artists were fans of the Hudson river valley style

Thank you very much my friend

>in person they're sloppy and completely unimpressive.
Still 6,000,000x better than Modern and Post-Modern "art."

these are shit. no amount of good rendering can cover up an awful base

Ivan Aivazovsky, great Russian artist

good god wtf thats amazing

Painting of the sante fe trail?

This is a little too explicit for my taste.

Yes.

I went to a shitty small town east Texas school but we actually had very good art, history, and humanities for a typical varsity blues type school.

Onions goyim resent the idea that technical skill is the basic requirement and that the technique, composition, and thesis need to be equal to the subject for something to actually be art.

Collage and installation are nigger tier jewish deconstructions of real art. Just because you can articulate the intent of low brow art doesn't make it good.

That reminds me somewhat of the cartoony landscapes by Eyvind Earle, who did backgrounds for Disney animated films.

That is literally one of the most incredible paintings I've ever seen. Holy shit....what has become of our civilization. No one alive could paint a scene like that.

that's because politicians cut all the funding for the arts lol

Only thing off about this is there is no gap between the clouds and the horizon. I live out here and the thunderheads are amazing but those kind are always above the skyline and have vast curtains of rain falling down.

What war is like without the fake glory. There are wild hogs in the background.

Yeah...in the 1880s...pretty sure the gov't wasn't paying for the arts.

jesus fucking christ... chills

Bump for the Hudson River Valley School!
I fell in love with this style when I first saw this painting first hand at a museum. Truly awe inspiring.

Grew up and still live in the shadow of Thomas Cole mountain. Have camped for days in most of the places the artists would sketch.

Yes, it is the greatest school of landscape art ever produced. You have excellent taste.

This is patently false. Monitors cannot even display touches like translucent rainbows and light beams that these artists perfected.

Meh. Utilizing software is great and all that but the patience and skill of years that went into that painting is MUCH more impressive to myself. Also, not really a fan of corporate cut scene art made solely to bring in the NEET jewbucks. That painting is a work of true passion.

Frederic Edwin Church, a man from (and buried in) my city, back when it was a hub of American culture and not a bankrupt nighole. I'm despairing.

Oh fuck.

My father is from Albany, NY. My grandfather had a bunch of paintings in an identical style around his old house. Weird.
