Morning at Muir Glacier c. 19th century

Theodore J. Richardson’s “Morning at Muir Glacier,” is a watercolor on paper depicting a serene Alaskan landscape. The painting, created in the late 19th century, showcases the grandeur of Muir Glacier. The pale blue hues of the water, the white-capped peaks, and the muted browns of the land create a calming and contemplative scene. The piece exemplifies Richardson's talent for capturing the beauty of nature with subtle brushstrokes, and evokes a sense of peace and awe.
