Summary
"Frederic Church, Winslow Homer, and Thomas Moran: Tourism and the American Landscape is published in conjunction with a major exhibition mounted by the Smithsonian's Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum that will showcase, for the first time in over two decades, the museum's extraordinary collection of American art, including the largest holdings of works by Homer and Church in the world. Five original essays will accompany the two hundred illustrations to show how these artists' depictions helped create a notion of America as a land of purity and beauty, harmony, and opportunity."--BOOK JACKET.
