Date last updated: 12/11/2008 August, 2008 Click above image for .DOC file Eloquent Vistas: The Art of Nineteenth-Century American Landscape Photography from the George Eastman House Collection June 15 - September 14, 2008 This exhibition will feature over 50 nineteenth-century photographic landscapes drawn from George Eastman House's collection of over 3,500 prints and 6,500 stereographs of nineteenth-century American landscapes. These photographs will be complemented by works by George Inness and Thomas Moran from the Montclair Art Museum's collection. Eloquent Vistas includes well-known photographers of the era: Timothy H. O'Sullivan, Eadweard Muybridge, William Henry Jackson, John Moran, Carlton E. Watkins, William H. Rau, William Bell, and others. These photographers' explorations of the spectacular West and other locales, including Yosemite, Yellowstone, the Grand Canyon, the Grand Canyon, and the west coast, are undeniably impressive. They documented the American land for government-sponsored geological and geographical surveys, for the railroad companies, as records of the Civil War, and for the tourist trade. Many accomplished their commissions in a truly artistic way, so that today we appreciate their images more for their aesthetic value than for their topographical depiction of place. This exhibition celebrates their achievements.
