"In the 19th century a group of painters who became known as 'The Hudson River School' shared a strong love for the landscape of this region. For them, as for their patrons, it was a love affair with the marvelous landscape of this young country. The period of the Hudson River School was short lived, spanning some thirty years, with Albert Bierstadt, Thomas Cole and Frederic Church among the most important artists of the 'School.' Several of the artists did not reside in the area, yet continued to be impacted upon and draw artistic inspiration from the beauty of the Hudson River and its surrounds."
