Washington's crossing Delaware River Wall Art.
Washington Crossing The Delaware Tapestries, wall art and wall hangings to accent the beauty of your home.
Washington's crossing of the Delaware River, which occurred on December 25, 1776, during the American Revolutionary War, was the first move in a surprise attack organized by George Washington against the Hessian forces in Trenton, New Jersey.

Washington's army then crossed the river a third time at the end of the year, under conditions made more difficult by the uncertain thickness of the ice on the river. There they attacked and defeated Hessian troops quartered in and around the village. This surprise attack and victory set the stage for Washington's subsequent victories at the Second Battle of Trenton and Princeton.

Discount Contemporary Landscape Canvas Wall Art Paintings

Contemporary Landscape Canvas Wall Art Paintings.

In the United States, the Hudson River School, prominent in the middle to late nineteenth century, is probably the best known native development in contemporary landscape art. These painters created works of mammoth scale in attempting to capture the epic scope of the landscapes that inspired them.

The Chinese tradition of pure contemporary landscape, in which the minute human figure simply gives scale and invites the viewer to participate in the experience, was well established by the time the oldest surviving ink paintings were executed.

Many artists believe that painting directly from nature, as opposed to recalling the scene at the studio or working from photographs, is the only way to capture the true spirit of the landscape: Its energy, its ambience. It's contemporary painting.
