Product Description
Tracing the transformation of the colonies into nationhood between the 1760s and the Civil War, this book's classic paintings reveal the traits, ideals, and ambitions of a young people. Early Federal portraits, serene landscapes, and genre paintings document an ever-expanding range of issues, including the impact that industrial interests had in altering the American landscape. Works by John Singleton Copley, Gilbert Stuart, Thomas Cole, Elihu Vedder, Jasper Cropsey, Horatio Greenough, Hiram Powers, Samuel Colman, and others are shown.
