Description
Thomas Cole (1801–1848) was an English-born American painter and founder of the Hudson River School, a movement that celebrated the natural beauty of the American landscape. Emigrating to the United States in 1818, Cole was captivated by the wilderness and majestic scenery of the Hudson River Valley and beyond. His work combined romanticism with a reverence for nature, often incorporating allegorical and moral themes. Notable works include The Course of Empire and The Oxbow. Cole’s visionary landscapes helped define American art in the 19th century, emphasizing both the sublime grandeur and the fragility of the natural world.
