Painting Description
"Evening, 1859" is a seminal work by American landscape artist Jasper Francis Cropsey. The painting, rendered in oil on canvas, was completed in 185 during what is now recognised as Cropsey's mature period of creativity. Renowned for his vivid autumnal scenes, Cropsey infused this artwork with the same glowing hues characteristic of many of his works that depict the American Northeast.
"Evening, 1859" measures 76 x 123 centimeters, a grand size which allows the viewer to be drawn into the sweeping panorama Cropsey presents. The painting illustrates a tranquil rural scene during evening, hinting at Cropsey's reverence for the peaceful nature settings he idealized in his works, and just as importantly, acknowledges the transcendentalist notions prevalent during Cropsey's time.
The painting is deeply rooted in the Hudson River School of Art, which was chiefly inspired by romanticism and characterised by landscape paintings that homed in on the untamed parts of the United States, particularly in areas around the Hudson River valley. Cropsey demonstrated masterful use of lighting and colors to hone a warm and dramatic atmosphere, attributing a quasi-spiritual quality to the landscape viewed at sundown with deep blues and glowing oranges illuminating a bucolic scene.
Imitation of nature and reverence of the divine, as visualized through nature, were common themes that flowed through the Hudson River School style which Cropsey compellingly illustrates in "Evening, 1859".
"Evening, 1859" stands as a significant piece within Cropsey's oeuvre. Today, it resides in the Newington-Cropsey Foundation, established in 1977 to promote and preserve the paintings of Jasper Francis Cropsey, further solidifying itself into the canon of art history. This exceptional work continues to be revered by landscape enthusiasts, art historians, and museum visitors alike for its vibrant portrayal of the American landscape, characterised by its atmospheric play of light and the inherent romanticism typical of the Hudson River School.
