Hudson River Painters: An Artistic Landscape Fraternity
The Seymour Library welcomes back the historian John Cilio. Mr. Cilio will have a talk on America's first native school of painting--the Hudson River School.
The Hudson River School, dating back to the 1820, was America's first true artistic fraternity. This group of painters focused on capturing the unique natural beauty of the American continent. The paintings of the Hudson River School reflects a sense of hopefulness and deep appreciation for the untouched American landscape. As time passes, their artwork also began to convey a sense of sorrow for the changing landscape. Join John Ciclio for a presentation that delves into the lives, locations and symbolism of these painters.
