American Impressionism was a movement that emerged in the late 19th century, inspired by the French Impressionists but with a distinct American flavor. Artists sought to capture fleeting moments and atmospheric effects through loose brushwork and vibrant colors. "On the Terrace" is a prime example of this style, depicting an outdoor scene with dappled sunlight filtering through trees. The artist skillfully uses oil on canvas to create a sense of light and movement. In "Study of the Male Figure, 1875, " we see the artist's mastery of charcoal, white chalk, and pencil on paper. This study showcases their ability to capture form and anatomy with delicate lines and shading. "Two Little Girls" transports us to a carefree moment in time through its playful depiction of children at play. The use of oil on canvas allows for rich textures and depth. The enchanting "Paris at Twilight" captures the romantic allure of the city as day turns into night. Through bold brushstrokes and vibrant colors, this oil painting evokes a sense of mystery and beauty. In "Flags, Columbus Circle, " watercolor and charcoal are used to depict patriotic flags fluttering against New York City's skyline during World War I. This artwork reflects both American pride and artistic innovation. With "Montauk Point, " we are transported to the rugged coastline where crashing waves meet towering cliffs. The artist's use of oil on canvas brings out the raw power and natural beauty of this iconic location. A stunning portrait titled "Portrait of Katherine Cavenaugh" showcases how American Impressionists captured not only landscapes but also human subjects with sensitivity and grace using oil on canvas. "Lady in Flower Garden" immerses us in nature's splendor as we witness a woman surrounded by blooming flowers rendered beautifully in oils on canvas.
