"The Notch of the White Mountains" is a notable painting by American artist Charles DeWolf Brownell (1822–1909), created in 1858. This work is significant within Brownell's oeuvre and the broader context of 19th-century American landscape painting, reflecting the artist's engagement with the natural beauty of the northeastern United States. Brownell, primarily known for his landscapes and as a member of the second generation of the Hudson River School, captured the grandeur and sublime qualities of the American wilderness, aligning with the movement's emphasis on romantic, picturesque scenes.

The painting depicts Crawford Notch, a rugged and scenic mountain pass in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, celebrated for its dramatic cliffs and expansive vistas. Brownell's portrayal of Crawford Notch is imbued with a sense of awe and majesty, characteristic of the Hudson River School's approach to landscape. The composition skillfully balances the detailed rendering of natural elements with a keen awareness of atmospheric effects, creating a vivid sense of depth and space.

"The Notch of the White Mountains" not only showcases Brownell's technical prowess and sensitivity to natural beauty but also serves as a historical document, capturing the American landscape prior to extensive industrialization. It reflects the 19th-century American ethos of manifest destiny and the cultural significance of the wilderness in the national identity.

This painting is an important contribution to the canon of American art, offering insights into the era's aesthetic values and the environmental consciousness of the time. As such, it holds a place in the collections of major art institutions and continues to be studied for its artistic and cultural relevance.
