"Broad, Silent Valley" (1877-1887) by American landscape painter Alexander H. Wyant (1836-1892) exemplifies the Hudson River School style. This oil on canvas painting, now at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, depicts a serene valley with a quiet, misty atmosphere. The prominent trees in the foreground frame a distant view, emphasizing the vastness of the landscape. The subtle tonal variations and soft brushstrokes create a sense of tranquility, characteristic of Wyant's approach to depicting nature.
