Description
|
|
|
|
The White Mountains, Provincetown, Old Lyme, Newport, Monhegan Island—names like these evoke diverse images of New England, visually interpreted by such American artists as Martin Johnson Heade, Eastman Johnson, Frank Benson, Willard Metcalf, George Bellows, and Rockwell Kent. The region's mountains, villages, salt marshes, cities, and harbors have inspired Fitz Hugh Lane's luminist landscapes, Childe Hassam's impressionist seascapes, John Marin's abstractions, and Edward Hopper's realist works. Reproducing 53 works in color, this multi-museum catalog explores the century from 1850 to 1950 and looks at both the role of American artists in New England and the institutions that hold their works.
