Stanford White's "View of the Hudson River from the Catskills" (1870) is a watercolor painting that captures a serene landscape scene. The painting shows a sweeping vista of the Hudson River with a distant town nestled among the trees. The artist's use of soft, muted tones creates a sense of tranquility and emphasizes the natural beauty of the scene. White was a prominent architect, but he was also a talented painter, and this work reflects his appreciation for the landscape and the power of nature. The painting is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
