Scene on Catskill Creek by Frederick Edwin Church

 This piece is a "Scene on Catskill Creek" by Frederick Edwin Church.  He was a central figure in the Hudson River School of American landscape painters.  I picked this painting because I'm from Catskill and it reminds me of how beautiful the area near me can be.  The details in the painting are incredible and I think Frederick Church was one of the greatest landscape painters.
