This serene seaside landscape was created by Lucy M. Durand Woodman (1829-1910), daughter of famed Hudson River School artist Asher B. Durand, dubbed the “Father of American Landscape Painting.” It is no question that Woodman shared with her father an affinity for capturing the essence of America’s natural landscape. This particular work, “Old Orchard, Maine,” depicts light waves crashing along the shore on a cloudy day. The artist and her father share a final resting space here in Green-Wood, surrounded by the natural beauty that provided inspiration for their work over a century ago. Click the image to expand.
