"Cotopaxi" (1862) is a renowned oil painting by the American landscape artist Frederic Edwin Church, a central figure in the Hudson River School of painting. This work is one of several by Church that depict the Cotopaxi volcano in Ecuador, a subject that fascinated the artist and became emblematic of his interest in dramatic natural scenes and the sublime. The painting is notable for its meticulous detail, vibrant use of color, and the grandeur with which it captures the erupting volcano and its surrounding landscape.

In "Cotopaxi," Church masterfully conveys the raw power and beauty of the natural world, juxtaposing the fiery eruption and smoke plumes of the volcano with the serene and lush environment of the foreground. The composition reflects the 19th-century romantic sensibility and the belief in the transcendental power of nature. Church's depiction of Cotopaxi also resonates with contemporary themes of exploration, scientific inquiry, and the confrontation with nature's forces.

The painting was created during a period when Church was at the height of his artistic powers and had achieved significant public acclaim. It reflects his extensive travels in South America, where he sketched and studied the diverse landscapes that would later inform his grand canvases. "Cotopaxi" is a testament to Church's skill in rendering natural phenomena with both accuracy and emotional impact, and it remains a significant work within the canon of American art for its technical brilliance and evocative portrayal of the sublime.

"Cotopaxi" is held in the collection of the Detroit Institute of Arts, where it continues to be a subject of admiration and study for its artistic and historical significance. The painting is a key example of Church's work and of the larger Hudson River School movement, which celebrated the majesty of the American and international landscapes, influencing the course of art in the United States during the mid-19th century.
