Thomas Cole's 1834 painting, *Autumn Twilight View of Copway Peak*, showcases the Hudson River School artist's signature style of romantic landscape painting. The painting depicts a serene scene of a lake reflecting the golden hues of the setting sun, with Mount Chocorua, New Hampshire, rising in the background, shrouded in mist.
