  • Albert Bierstadt: A collection of 404 paintings (HD)
    Description: "Albert Bierstadt (American, 1830-1902), a landscape painter who focused on the American West, was born in Solingen, Germany. His family immigrated to Massachusetts in 1833, when he was just two years old, but he returned to Germany to study at the Düsseldorf School of Painting in 1853. While in Germany, he roomed with painter Worthington Whittredge; the two traveled Europe together, and, while in Switzerland, Bierstadt sketched the inspiration for Lake Lucerne. This painting was exhibited by the National Academy of Design in New York in 1858, and led to his being elected to the National Academy in 1860.
    The artist taught briefly in Germany after finishing school. He moved back to the United States, and traveled west with surveyor Frederick W. Lander in 1859. While there, Bierstadt sketched much of what he saw, and turned many of those sketches into oil paintings. Along with his brothers Charles and Edward, Bierstadt opened a photography studio in New York in 1860, which closed six years later, in 1866. He the traveled west again in 1863 with author Fitz Hugh Ludlow, and continued to return to the West for inspiration as time went on.
    Bierstadt painted pictures on oversized canvases that romanticized the Rocky Mountains, the Yosemite Valley, and the Native American tribes. In 1867, Bierstadt married Ludlow’s former wife Rosalie. In 1882, his studio was destroyed in a fire along with many of his sketches.
    Over his lifetime, he painted at least 500 paintings, including The Last of the Buffalo and Yosemite Valley, both of which have been featured on postage stamps. The artist also mentored William Bliss Baker, another landscape painter. Bierstadt was a member of the Hudson River School, a group of like-minded artists. Mount Bierstadt in Colorado is named after him.
    The artist died in Irving, NY, in 1902."

    If the Earth is forced to have only one style of painting, I think this style should be it. Not too abstract we couldn't understand it, nor too realistic it tries to emulate cameras.
    I shed tears watching this. His (com)passion towards his subjects is shown, very clearly. This is just unmatched easily.

    The absolute master of light in all of landscape painting. I rank Bierstadt as the best landscape painter of all time.

    Bierstadt's love affairs with the rugged landscape has transported later generations to continue the same. Man's unfortunate damming of Hetch Hetchy Valley cannot erase her former natural grandeur, however romantisized in Bierstadt's painting, still is eternally loved by those who are furtunate to witness what still remains in Yosemite National Park. When mankind disappears from Earth and the dam crumbles on its own, those lovely views captured by Bierstadt hopefully will return to what has delighted this master painter.
