5 marzo 1829 anni - to cole, the painter departing for europe

Descrizione:

written by william cullen bryant, shows the friendship between bryant and cole, celebration of nature and the landscape with no people. There is a friendship between the author and a friend of his who is about to go to Europe to paint the scenery
The overall feeling of the painting is romanticising American scenery, saying how beautiful and unique it is
“Lone lakes-- savannas where bison roves-- rocks rich with summer garlands---” Notice how there are no mention of people when it comes to American beauty
He says that you will go there and see beautiful things, they may even bring you to tears. But, they are different scenes than in America
“Keep that earlier, wilder image bright” (never forget the wild images of America!)
