Painting
The large steamship in this painting, the James Fisk, Jr., was a ferryboat with a side paddlewheel, decorated with oversized flags and at least six gold eagles. It was named for its owner, a powerful financier who lived a colorful life that was ended by a scandalous shooting. Fisk also owned the Bristol, which can be seen in the distance.
Known for his pristine depictions of ferries and steamboats, self-taught artist James Bard painted so accurately that it was said that shipbuilders could rebuild their boats based on his works.

Painting
At a time when there was no photography, videography, or cinema, people relied on landscape paintings to be their windows onto the world beyond their immediate horizons.
Thomas Chambers capitalized on people's interest in the American landscape. He is noted for his many picturesque views of early 19th-century America, including this one of the United States Military Academy at West Point on the Hudson River. Chambers worked from personal observation, but also consulted many British and American prints for his paintings.
You should not be surprised if you visit other museums and see a painting similar to this one. At least six other views of West Point were painted by Chambers.

"All that is painted directly, at a given moment, has a force, power, and vitality which can never be duplicated in a studio." --Eugène Boudin, to his student Claude Monet
Claude Monet’s early paintings were solidly grounded in the work of the preceding generation of French landscape painters called the Barbizon school. Their insistence on painting en plein air, or out of doors, led to Monet’s passion for capturing the transience of light.
Towing a Boat, Honfleur, painted ten years before the term Impressionism was coined, captures the moment that night overtakes sunset. It is one of the earliest of Monet’s many seascapes. As an experiment in reproducing the changing effects of light under different atmospheric conditions, the painting shows his process of abstracting nature into simplified forms and exaggerated color contrasts.

Painting
Thomas Moran was an adventurous landscape painter who traveled far and wide in search of compelling views. He accompanied the first government-sponsored expedition to Yellowstone, shortly before it became a national park, and his drawings and watercolors from that expedition formed the basis for dramatic paintings of western views. In 1886, he journeyed to Venice, where his watercolors captured views of lagoons and picturesque buildings. These sketches formed the basis of immensely popular studio paintings like the one hanging here.
In the second half of the nineteenth century, Venice was a favored Old World destination for many American writers and painters, including Mark Twain, Henry James, and James MacNeill Whistler. However, Moran's work probably had the greatest impact on Americans' awareness of La Serenissima (the most serene), a fond nickname for Venice.

Painting
Skaneateles Lake is located in the Finger Lakes region, part of the traditional lands of the nations that make up the Haudenosaunee. The frequent use of Haudenosaunee names in this region—Genesee, Irondequoit, Honeoye, and Canandaigua—is evident in the name of the lake and the town located on the northern tip, Skaneateles, which means “long lake.”
This painting depicts a sculling race from an era, and an area, when travel by boat was more common than today. The two steamboats seen here have flags bearing their names, identifying them as the Echo (on the left) and the Glen Haven, which carried vacationers arriving on trains and carriages at the top of Skaneateles Lake down to the resorts and summer cottages at the southern end. This scull race was widely advertised as part of the Fourth of July festivities on the lake in 1878. The artist shows people cheering from nearby boats as Charles E. Courtney from Union Springs passes by, winning the race by only one minute. The subject of the painting was unknown until it was included in a 1962 exhibition in New York, where a Skaneateles native recognized the scene and wrote a letter to his local paper.

The American artist James Abbott McNeill Whistler, based primarily in London, and Monet were both committed to working from nature and seeking beauty in contemporary environments. They directed their focus increasingly on transient effects of light and weather and revisited their subjects under varying conditions. In particular, both artists shared a fascination with the landmarks and activity along London’s Thames River.
This etchings was a part of Whistler’s A Series of Sixteen Etchings of Scenes on the Thames and Other Subjects (known as “The Thames Set”). When they were published in 1871, the prints were already recognized as a valuable record of an already vanishing London.
