嵐の後、マサチューセッツ州、ノーザンプトン、ホリヨーク山からの眺望またはザ・オックスボウ

Thomas Cole American

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 759

ホリヨーク山麓を流れるコネチカット川の蛇行の様子に魅了されたコールは、いわゆるオックスボウ(川の湾曲部)をこの壮大な絵画の主題とし、雷雨の後に訪れる不気味な光を捉えました。森林にはまだ黒い雨雲の影が残っていますが、その向こうの蛇行する川と野原は明るく輝いています。コールは野生の山と田園地帯を共に描いて対比させることでアメリカの自然が抱く可能性を強調し、美術的な視点と想像力によって現実の場所を理想化しました。イーゼルに向かうコールと傘が前景に描かれています。
