THE ICEBERG by Frederic E Church (American 1826-1900) Carnegie Institute, Pittsburg, PA.
A classic Art Print of a Schooner sailing past a giant Iceburg..
Frederic Church was born in Hartford, Connecticut, in 1926, to a wealthy family who encouraged his artistic interests. Church's primary art instruction was with the Hudson River School master Thomas Cole, with whom he spent four years. Church was Cole's first and last student.
Church's works were dramatic Hudson River-style paintings of the unspoiled landscape, often heroic and lit from within suggesting the presence of a higher power. Church began a successful exhibition history by showing at the National Academy of Design at the age of 19.
Church established a home and studio overlooking the Hudson River, a frequent source of inspiration. He was also an avid traveler, having taken his vision to South America. His epic tropical visions from this trip were highly acclaimed upon his return to New York.
Church's career was cut short when rheumatism crippled his right hand in 1877. He died in New York in 1900.
