During the second half of the nineteenth century, in the United States, both the stimulus to produce landscape art and the subject of landscape altered appreciably as the pressure of events surrounding the Civil War witnessed the emergence of a new national consciousness. It was a time when certain fundamental religious beliefs were
assaulted
by new scientific theory and when new critical writing, particularly those of John Ruskin, exercised an important influence on art. The landscape painting from the Ganz collection provide an opportunity to examine the shifts in taste and the pluralities of style that characterized American landscape painting, especially in the latter part of the century.
In the early years of the nineteenth century American landscape was closely associated with the republican ideals of the new nation and took on significance in the popular imagination as a form of national propaganda. Landscape painting was conceived of as a vehicle for the presentation of the new republic’s unique historical and moral position in world history. This position was supported by Thomas Cole, the dean of the Hudson River School, and was based on a religious interpretation of wilderness themes. While the American concern for the founding of a school of historical landscape was most assertive in the first half of the century and was confirmed in such grandly ambitious paintings as Cafe’s famous instructive moral one portraying the COURSE OF EMPIRE, the interest in creating a national art based on American nature continued to influence the formal evolution of landscape painting.
