This document provides information about early American artworks and artists from the 17th to 19th centuries. It discusses how ordinary people produced folk art using materials available to them. When artists tried to capture personalities and emotions in their subjects, this was called portraiture. The document also profiles several prominent American artists from this period including Thomas Cole, who painted landscapes, and John James Audubon, who was both an artist and naturalist who painted birds. It provides context and observations for various paintings shown.

=====19th Century American Art=====

[https://www.artsy.net/gene/19th-century-american-art by Artsy]

A general category for artworks made in the United States between 1800 and 1900. While until 1820 American art was largely derivative of European styles, Thomas Cole and the Hudson River School would develop a distinctive style of painting that highlighted the American landscape, a subject that was later explored and imbued with nationalist themes by Albert Bierstadt during his travels through the American West.

=====10 American Artists You Should Know=====

[https://blog.artsper.com/en/get-inspired/10-american-artists-you-should-know/ by Artsper Magazine]

Since the mid 20th century, the United States has been the leader in the art market. The awarding of the Golden Lion to the American Rauschenberg at the 1964 Venice Biennale testifies to the shift in primacy from the School of Paris to the New York School. Today, in addition to its museums with the most prestigious collections, the “Big Apple” is the city with the most galleries. In fact, more than 100,000 artists have set up their studios there, taking advantage of the opportunity to try their luck with more than 1,500 galleries.

=====The American School: Artists and Status in the Late Colonial and Early National Era=====

[https://journalpanorama.org/article/artists-and-status/ by Marie-Stéphanie Delamaire PARANOMA]

New Haven: Yale University Press in association with the Paul Mellon Center for Studies in British Art, 2016; 316 pp.; 100 color illus.; 80 b/w illus.; ISBN: 978-0-300-21461; Hardcover: $75.00

=====American Paintings=====

[https://www.neartexchange.com/painting/american by New England Art Exchange]

This is a fine impressionist landscape painting by American artist John Joseph Enneking. The subject is a Fall Twilight landscape. It is signed Enneking lower right. The painting measures 22X30 inches. Relined but in very presentable condition. John J. Enneking (1841-1916) "John Joseph Enneking, a man ahead of his time, had a stylistic foot in both the pre-impressionist and impressionist worlds of the late nineteenth century. An 1873 sketch of Madame Monet bears evidence of his work as perhaps America’s earliest impressionist painter. But he also knew Edouard Manet (1824-1898), and studied with the great French Barbizon teacher Charles-Francois Daubigny (1817-1878), as well as with Eugene Boudin (1824-1898)." (Vose)

=====American Paintings, 1900–1945=====

[https://www.nga.gov/research/publications/american-paintings-1900-1945 by National Gallery Of Art]

The first curator of the National Gallery of Art, John Walker, and three of its early trustees—Chester Dale, Duncan Phillips, and Paul Mellon—established a commitment to the field of American 20th-century art that has continued to the present day. If American contemporary art was far from a top priority when the Gallery opened in 1941, these “conservative” modernists nonetheless managed to set precedents that proved to be durable and effective.

=====European and American Art Before 1900=====

[https://www.denverartmuseum.org/en/collection/european-and-american-art by DENVER art MUSEUM]

The department of European and American Art Before 1900 oversees a collection that includes more than 3,000 artworks and is composed of painting, sculpture, and works on paper, with significant strengths in early Italian Renaissance, 19th century French painting, and British art from 1400 to 1900.

=====19th Century American Art=====

[https://www.midwestmuseum.org/project/19th-century-american-art/ by MIDWEST MUSEUM OF AMERICAN ART]

Naive Artists, Limners, and Self-Taught Artists

There was not an immediate need for trained artists in the New World since most of the activities of early settlers and colonists involved survival. As the Seventeenth Century came to a close and the Eighteenth Century was dawning, a need arose within the colonies of America for artists who could paint signs, carve grave markers, paint carriages and furniture, create fanciful documents, and paint portraits to serve as testimonials to wealth and genealogical records of family members.
