More about this artwork

Lake Albano (Sunset_c. 1874) by George InnessCapturing an ethereal moment at sunset, "Lake Albano" by George Inness, painted around 1874, invites viewers into a serene, glowing landscape that expertly blurs the line between reality and the artist’s emotional interpretation. The painting depicts the calm waters of Lake Albano, located near Rome, Italy, bathed in the gentle light of a setting sun that suffuses the sky with warm, golden hues.In this tranquil scene, Inness employs a masterful use of light and shadow to create depth and texture. The foreground is marked by rich, dark greens of the lush vegetation, leading to a middle ground where the light gently hits, illuminating patches of the landscape and reflecting off the water. The distant hills and outlined structures, under a vast sky, suggest a quiet solitude and the presence of a fading day.George Inness, known for his influence from the Tonalist movement, showcases his ability to evoke mood and emotion through subtle color variations and soft, almost imperceptible transitions between elements of the composition.

George Inness (May 1, 1825 – August 3, 1894) was a prominent American landscape painter.

Now recognized as one of the most influential American artists of the nineteenth century, Inness was influenced by the Hudson River School at the start of his career. He also studied the Old Masters, and artists of the Barbizon school during later trips to Europe. There he was introduced to the theology of Emanuel Swedenborg, which was significant for him; he expressed that spiritualism in the works of his maturity (1879–1894).
