Title A name given to the resource Greenwood Lake Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource jpeg, 765 KB Description An account of the resource Cropsey, initially trained as an architect, turned to painting in the style of Thomas Cole's sublime renderings of nature. He traveled in the Northeast and Europe, gaining recognition for his increasingly vivid fall hues and more restful settings. Here we see a lake whose shoreline is shared by the states of New York and New Jersey. A group of visitors appreciates the view in foreground, with forests in early autumn and pristine waters. Crossing the lake is a steamship—which as it happens had commenced operations two years earlier due to a growing tourist industry on the lake. Like other paintings of this era showing (for example) a railroad passing through natural landscapes, even small details indicate ambivalence.

He traveled in the Northeast and Europe, gaining recognition for his increasingly vivid fall hues and more restful settings. Here, we look downstream at the Unadilla River and see elements both of the pastoral--grazing herds at center and front left, split-rail fences, a cozy farmhouse--and of the modern. In the far distance, a small puff of smoke announces an Erie Railroad train traveling toward us: at this scale, it hasn't yet overwhelmed nature's beauty. In the foreground two figures relax (or wait?) alongside the river telegraph wires presumably paralleling the railroad. Its tracks are however carefully cropped out.
