This painting is my version of a Hudson River painting titled "Hyde Park, New York," by Johann Hermann Carmiencke, a German-born painter who spent the last 16 years of his life living and painting in New York.
My teacher suggested that I study by copying the "old masters," and for me that means the Husdon River School. I love their appreciation of the granduer of the American landscape. This painting appealed to me because of its grand vista, showing the Catskills in the distance.

Really nice! I can imagine it on the wall of a certain house on Amboy Road in Annadale, since it certainly would have appealed to the taste of the chatelaine there.
