"Mt. Desert, Maine" is a notable painting by the American artist William Trost Richards, who was a prominent figure in the 19th-century American art scene. Created in 1863, this work exemplifies Richards' dedication to the meticulous depiction of natural landscapes, a hallmark of his artistic career. The painting captures the rugged beauty of Mount Desert Island, located off the coast of Maine, which is renowned for its dramatic coastal scenery and diverse ecosystems.

Richards was associated with both the Hudson River School and the American Pre-Raphaelite movement, and his works often reflect the influence of these artistic traditions. The Hudson River School was known for its romantic portrayal of the American wilderness, while the American Pre-Raphaelites emphasized detailed and accurate representations of nature. "Mt. Desert, Maine" embodies these dual influences, showcasing Richards' skill in rendering the intricate details of the natural world with a sense of grandeur and reverence.

The painting features a panoramic view of the island's rocky shoreline, with the Atlantic Ocean stretching out into the distance. Richards' use of light and shadow, along with his precise brushwork, brings a sense of realism and depth to the scene. The composition is balanced, with the rugged terrain in the foreground leading the viewer's eye towards the serene expanse of water and sky.

"Mt. Desert, Maine" is celebrated not only for its artistic merit but also for its contribution to the cultural and historical understanding of the American landscape during the 19th century. It reflects the growing appreciation for the natural beauty of the United States during a time of rapid industrialization and expansion. Today, the painting is held in high regard by art historians and is considered an important example of William Trost Richards' legacy as a master landscape painter.
