Pastoral Landscapes

The Fruitlands Education Department will present a program on the development of pastoral landscape painting in America. A slide show and lecture will illustrate the evolution of this American art form using images from the museum’s Hudson River School landscape painting collection. The program provides a cultural history of the 19th century as well as biographical information about key painters to help listeners understand the unique power of this painting genre.

Fee: $150 flat fee for this one hour program at your site.
Requirements: need a room that can be darkened for a slide show presentation. Small table to hold the laptop and outlet access required. Fruitlands can provide the laptop, digital projector and screen if this is not available at your site.
