- Thomas Moran: A collection of 342 paintings (HD)
Description: "Thomas Moran was born in 1837 in Bolton, Lancashire to two handloom weavers. The rapid industrialization of nineteenth century England soon mechanized the weaving process and forced Thomas Moran's parents out of their jobs, at which point the whole family was moved to Kensington, Philadelphia, just outside of Philadelphia.
At the age of sixteen, Thomas Moran became an apprentice to a Philadelphia wood engraving firm, Scattergood & Telfer. It was in this position that he began to paint and draw seriously, working diligently on his skills as both a watercolorist and an illustrator. In this he had help and support from his brother Edward, who was an associate of the marine painter James Hamilton.
In the early 1860, Thomas Moran traveled to Lake Superior, where he painted and sketched the landscape of the Great Lakes. Back in Philadelphia he sold lithographs of the Great Lakes before setting off on another trip, this time to London, to see the works of the famed British landscape and marine painter JMW Turner. Thomas Moran replications of Thomas Moran's work so impressed the director of the National Gallery that he was given a private room to work in. Upon returning to the U.S., Moran wanted to go west again and paint but had to wait for the right opportunity.
That opportunity came in the form of Ferdinand V. Hayden's 1871 Geological Survey Expedition to what is now Yellowstone National Park. Thomas Moran was hired, along with photographer William Henry Jackson, to document the landscape of the region. He could not have chosen a better trip or companion, as the combined talents of Moran and Jackson in documenting the geysers, hot springs, canyons and cliffs of the "Yellow Stone Territory" would be instrumental in persuading Congress to set the land aside as a National Park. It was also the beginning of a fruitful partnership, as Thomas Moran would accompany Jackson again on Major John Wesley Powell's expedition to the west in 1873.
It was on this trip that Thomas Moran painted his two most famous works, "The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone" and "The Chasm of the Colorado," both of which were purchased (for a previously unheard-of sum of $10,000 each) by Congress to be displayed in the Capitol in Washington. With the money he was earning from his newfound fame, Thomas Moran again traveled to Europe, this time to Venice, where he purchased a gondola and shipped it back to the United States in order to use it as a model for a variety of Venice scenes he produced after 1890.
Thomas Moran moved west permanently in his old age, settling in Santa Barbara, CA and traveling to Acoma and Laguna pueblos to paint the scenery and lifestyle of the native peoples. He died in 1926 of natural causes."

Thank you so much for your support!
Moran's paintings of the Western United States are astounding. Breathtaking representation of the soul of western landscapes
Thank you for providing us with this beauty. I think I will have a few painted
The gift you give us with all these painters is unique. Spending time looking at their works gives me the feeling of losing track of my present time and I realize how beautiful God's creation or better say "Source" of all things is. We owe you a lot. You have my deep gratitude for this wonderful work of disseminating these works so that we do not forget these wonderful transmitters of the unique beauty of the world.
Thomas Moran is my absolute favorite Hudson River School Of Art painter. The rich and romantic style of his brush is unforgettable.
Moran was a significant artist in helping to establish the worlds 1st National Park---Yellowstone. If it wasn't for his paintings of Yellowstone, Congress in 1872 may not have created Wonderland. Some amazing images, many I've never seen. Thanks
Magnificent paintings. Some are almost like photos. And colors are dazzling.
Thanks for a beautiful presentation of his paintings
Amo essas obras de Thomas Moran. É uma inspiração fenomenal. Excelente vídeo.
Morans dramatic rendering of light reminds one of Turner...great contrasts and colour...
Огромное спасибо за наслождение видеть живопись художников в коллекции. Прекрасное качество изображений, музыкальное сопровождение великолепно! Низкий поклон за Ваш труд!
Thank you for uploading so many great paintings.
Thank you !!!!!
Wspaniale dziela , pelne romantyzmu piekna , natury oczami duszy artysty .
Que du bonheur les harmonies qu'elles soient colorées ou musicales magnifiques.
Les peintres sont des personnes extraordinaires, des anges,qui savent exprimer l'amour, la joie, la tristesse, la richesse et la pauvreté ,la terre et le ciel .de même leur vision des choses et des personnes paraît différente. Tous se passent entre les doigts ,sur de la toile des reflets de pinceaux tellement sensibles et raffinés nous racontent l'histoire des personnes et des lieux sur des tableaux qui demeurent vivants éternellement.

28:13+16 ethereal. His work is humbling. Thank you for the opportunity to see such beauty. Prior to this video I watched one that had the works of John Atkinson Grimshaw. 15:00+. Nearly an hour of fineness in a stressful day. I cannot complain.
Perfect. Astonishing
4th here BEautiful paintings all with strong palette chaaracters and beauty
Beautiful!
Another incredible painter in this series. As good as Constable or Turner.
I just ordered a giclee of his work Sunset at Land's End, Cornwall. 20"x30". Dark and crashing waves, white spray, rocks and billowy, threatening clouds. 31:00 Fantastic.To remind me of the beautiful landscape in Poldark. Powerful image.
My only request? Please, number the images. There are several I want to remember and search for and my brain gets boggled, caught up in seeing his skies or reflections in water...the most beautiful strong colors, and I lose my place😤. Gorgeous.

I have a Thomas Moran painting Old Mission dated 1905 and signed.
Can anyone help me with more information.
Jessica Pannell, I purchased an easel from the estate of the late Carroll Westfall who was an art restoration artist and worked into his 90’s was a WW. 2 veteran recipient of a Bronze Star and two Silver Stars, and he restored several Thomas Moran paintings on this easel. Perhaps his wife Debbie could tell you more about your painting. IDK, but here is the article about him. www.post-gazette.com/ae/art-architecture/2014/06/30/Carro
Yes, where are you keeping it?
I have a Thomas Moran original signed 1900. How can I determine the value
Probably not the value you are speaking of, but, I would say if it lifts your heart and takes your breath and slams you back down...marveling, it's priceless.

JMW Turner meets the American west.
There is no greater landscape genius, includng Bierstadt. Moran stands at the pinnacle of this form of art.
first here _hahah_
Please remove the BLACK borders! Very distracting...
Terrible JMW Turner imitations
Yes.
More than just a nod there to John Constable as well.
I like sea and location scapes
