Volcanoes, forests and the American sublime · Travels of 1853 and 1857
From Cotopaxi to the Heart of the Andes, Church brings together volcanoes, vegetation, waterfalls and equatorial light in spectacularly precise panoramas.
Frederic Edwin Church traveled to South America in 1853 and again in 1857, inspired by the writings of naturalist Alexander von Humboldt. In Colombia and Ecuador, he drew mountains, valleys, plants and atmospheric phenomena before recomposing these observations into vast workshop landscapes. The Heart of the Andes, completed in 1859, synthesizes several climates, from the first tropical plane to icy peaks. Presented in a window-like setting, the painting invited visitors to use binoculars to explore its details. Cotopaxi, Chimborazo, Cayambe and Pichincha each become geological figures.
