Amerikaanse landschapsschilderkunst
1834–1891, VS (Pennsylvania, Maine, New York, het Westen), Hudson River School en luminisme
Negentiende-eeuwse Amerikaanse schilders zochten het verhevene in de natuur van hun land. Fitz Henry Lane schilderde rustige, lichtrijke havens in Maine, George Inness zachte, sfeervolle velden en bossen. Albert Bierstadt en Thomas Moran trokken met expedities naar het westen; Morans beelden van Yellowstone hielpen om daar in 1872 het eerste nationale park ter wereld te stichten. De quaker Edward Hicks schilderde zijn ‘Vredig Koninkrijk’ steeds opnieuw.
