Jasper Cropsey 'Lake Wawayanda' Canvas Art,14x24

Jasper Cropsey was an important American landscape artist of the Hudson River School. Artist: Jasper Cropsey Subject: Landscape Style: Impressionism Product Type: Gallery-wrapped canvas art This ready to hang, gallery wrapped art piece features Lake Wawayanda. As as artist, he believed landscapes were the highest art form and that nature was a direct manifestation of God. Gallery wrap is a method of stretching an artist's canvas so that the canvas wraps around the sides and is secured a hidden, wooden frame. This method of stretching and preparing a canvas allows for a frameless presentation of the finished painting. Cropsey's interest in architecture continued throughout his life and was a stron influence in his painting, most evident in his precise arrangement and outline of forms. The attainable excellence that Giclee printmaking affords makes the reproduction virtually indistinguishable from the original piece. Giclee (jee-clay) is an advanced printmaking process for creating high quality fine art reproductions. The result is wide acceptance of Giclee by galleries, museums, and private collectors. He also felt a patriotic affiliation with nature and saw his paintings as depicting the rugged and unpoiled qualities of America. He was best known for his lavish use of color and, as a first-generation member from the Hudson River School, painted autumn landscapes that startled viewers with their boldness and brilliance.
