Description
Thomas Cole: The Architectural Visionary This book explores an unexplored aspect of Thomas Cole's career, revealing his architectural interests through his paintings and drawings, as well as his realized and visionary projects. An in-depth analysis of Cole's architectural endeavors sheds new light on the breadth of his talents and interests. The recreation of Cole's self-designed Italianate studio at Cedar Grove in Catskill, New York, now the Thomas Cole National Historic Site, serves as a catalyst for this study. The book is published to coincide with an exhibition at the Thomas Cole National Historic Site and travelling to the Columbus Art Museum, adding a new dimension to scholarship on the artist. With contributions from noted art historians Annette Blaugrund and Franklin Kelly, this book offers a fascinating insight into Cole's architectural vision and its impact on the development of the Hudson River School and American art.
