Story

A sweeping valley unfolds between snow-topped peaks, with dense green growth, a cascading waterfall, and a winding river beneath a sky thick with clouds, rendered in tones of green, brown, and blue. This oil painting dates to 1859. Its creator, Frederic Edwin Church (1826–1900), was an American painter associated with the Hudson River school, and the piece belongs to the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
