1848 -1880 · Tropics, Hudson and sublime weather
Tropical downpour, storm on the Hudson, maritime fog and mountain storm make the sky an actor: Church builds the landscape around the moment when light struggles with bad weather.
Frederic Edwin Church inherited an ambitious conception of landscape from Thomas Cole, but his precise observation of the atmosphere and his travels gave meteors a new intensity. In Rainy Season in the Tropics, a double rainbow crosses a valley still crossed by rain; the spectacular effect is based on numerous studies of clouds, light and vegetation. Tropical showers show the speed with which sun and darkness alternate in these latitudes. On the Hudson Valley, tropical showers show the speed with which sun and darkness alternate in these latitudes. On the Hudson Valley, tropical showers show the speed with which sun and darkness alternate in these latitudes. On the Hudson Valley, tropical showers show the speed with which sun and darkness alternate in these latitudes. On the Hudson Valley, the storm transposes this dramaturgy into the artist's familiar landscape. On the contrary, the fog off Mount Desert erases maritime landmarks and renders the fragile visibility. Storm in the mountains often contrasts a darkened base with a luminous breakthrough that restores depth. Church does not just document a phenomenon: it assembles observations made at different times so that cloud, rain, clearing and relief tell a passage. The storm thus becomes an experience of the sublime, based as much on the science of the gaze as on emotion. The selection "Storms and Rains by Frederic Edwin Church" notably compares Rainy Season in the Tropics and Storm on the Hudson Valley. His reading favors the story.
Church paints the weather as a succession: rain closes space, thinning reopens, and the rainbow preserves the memory of the storm.
