Cypress Trees at Sunset
Cypress
Trees at Sunset - and its companion
piece "River Scene"
- emphasizes the Japanese aesthetic, which was
so prevalent during the Arts and Craft movement. Prior
to this time, the American artists' representation
of the landscape was a monumental, expansive view,
like that of Bierstadt. After exposure to the tremendous
influx of Japanese prints to America during the Arts
and Crafts period, American artists began to express
the Japanese sensibility in their work. A more personal
landscape emerged, with closely cropped asymmetrical
compositions, very like that of "River Scene"
and Cyress Tree at Sunset". Their easy simplicity
and soft colors create a comforting view of the American
landscape. "Cypress Trees at Sunset" is an adaptation of a Pedro de Lemos woodblock print, ca. 1905.
