British artists including J.M.W. Turner and John Constable raised landscape painting to new heights and their work reached global audiences through the circulation of engravings. Thomas Cole, born in England, emigrated to the United States in 1818, and first absorbed the picturesque and sublime through print media. Cole transformed British and continental European traditions to create a distinctive American form of landscape painting. The authors here explore the role of prints as agents of artistic transmission and look closely at how Cole's own creative process was driven by works on paper such as drawings, notebooks, letters, and manuscripts. Also considered is the importance of the parallel works of William Guy Wall, best known for his pioneering Hudson River Portfolio. Beautifully illustrated with works on paper ranging from watercolors to etchings, mezzotints, aquatints, engravings, and lithographs, as well as notable paintings, this book offers important insights into Cole's formulation of a profound new category in art--the American sublime." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: An Inheritance in Print: Thomas Cole and the Aesthetics of Landscape, by Tim Barringer and Jennifer Raab; Working Papers: Thomas Cole's Early Drawings and Notebooks, by Nicholas Robbins; Idyllic and Industrial Visions: Thomas Cole, William Guy Wall, and the Hudson River, by Sophie Lynfold, by Catalogue, by Origins, by Picturesque, by Sublime, by Trans-Atlantic Inheritance.
