Morning, Looking East over the Hudson Valley from Catskill Mountains 1848

"Morning, Looking East over the Hudson Valley from Catskill Mountains" is an 1848 painting by Frederic Edwin Church. The painting depicts a dramatic sunrise over the Hudson Valley, viewed from the Catskill Mountains. The sky is a vibrant red and orange, with delicate clouds layered across the canvas, while the landscape below is rendered in deep greens and browns. Church's meticulous detail and his use of light and shadow create a sense of awe and wonder, typical of the Hudson River School style of landscape painting. This artwork is currently housed in the Albany Institute of History and Art.
