Thomas Cole and the Domestic Landscape of the Hudson River School
In celebrating landscape painting as the quintessential American subject for painting, nineteenth‐century critics and the art historians who have followed them have unjustly marginalized works in which topography dominates, thereby presenting a skewed view of artistic engagement with houses during the years when domestic architecture was central to national discourses of progress. This chapter offers an alternate history of the formation of the “Hudson River School” by focusing on the “topographic vision” and transatlantic exchanges that caused artists such as Thomas Cole to devote so much of their careers to the image of the house in the landscape.
