| Abstract | In his article Schnitzler discusses the exchange of ideas between painters and writers in the U.S. in the 19th century. He highlights the painter, writer, aesthetician Thomas Cole but also discusses the works of Asher B. Durand, Emmanuel Gottlieb Leutze, George Inness, Albert Bierstadt, and Henry Inman. He argues that one can read history in the romanticized depictions of nature, especially in the works of Cole. He also briefly compares the style of Nature painting at that time to portraiture. Illustrations are included as well as a poem by Cole. |
