"Train Beside The Hudson River" is a 19th-century painting by the British-born artist Andrew Melrose (1836–1901), who was known for his American landscapes and genre scenes. The painting captures the burgeoning industrial era in the United States, depicting a locomotive traveling along the banks of the Hudson River, a vital waterway in New York State that has inspired countless artists with its natural beauty juxtaposed against human progress and technology.

Melrose's work often reflects the transformative period in American history when the expansion of the railroad network was altering the landscape and the nation's psyche, symbolizing movement, progress, and the conquest of nature. In "Train Beside The Hudson River," Melrose meticulously renders the steam train, a marvel of the age, as it cuts through the serene and majestic environment of the Hudson Valley. The juxtaposition of the man-made marvel with the tranquil river and the surrounding foliage is emblematic of the tension between industrialization and the natural world.

The painting is characteristic of Melrose's artistic style, which includes attention to detail, a harmonious color palette, and the use of light to create atmospheric effects. While Melrose may not be as widely recognized as some of his contemporaries, his works contribute to the visual documentation of America's changing landscape during the 19th century and are valuable for their historical and artistic significance.

As an artist who emigrated to the United States, Melrose's perspective as both an outsider and an American resident provided him with a unique vantage point from which to document the country's development. "Train Beside The Hudson River" is a testament to this period of change and reflects the artist's fascination with the interplay between humanity's achievements and the natural world. The painting is held in private collections and has been displayed in various art exhibitions focusing on American landscape painting and the history of transportation in art.
