"The Lackawanna Valley" is an oil painting by the prominent American landscape painter George Inness, completed in 1855. This work is notable for its depiction of the early stages of industrialization in the rural American landscape, specifically capturing the Lackawanna Valley in Pennsylvania during a time of significant transformation. Inness, who is often associated with the Hudson River School and later the Tonalist movement, is known for his evocative treatment of light and atmosphere, which is evident in this painting.

Measuring 86.4 cm by 127.6 cm, "The Lackawanna Valley" presents a harmonious blend of nature and industry, showcasing Inness's skill in balancing the two. The painting features a pastoral foreground with lush greenery and a train, a symbol of progress, cutting through the valley in the background. The juxtaposition of the natural landscape with the railroad and roundhouse reflects the artist's contemplation of the changing American environment due to technological advancements.

Inness's work on "The Lackawanna Valley" was commissioned by the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad, and it serves as a visual testament to the economic and social changes of the era. The painting is significant for its historical context as well as its aesthetic achievements, representing a key moment in Inness's artistic development and in the broader narrative of American art. Today, "The Lackawanna Valley" is held in the collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it continues to be studied and admired for its rich portrayal of 19th-century America and its insightful commentary on the relationship between humanity and the environment.
