HISTORICAL AMERICAN ART

Historical American art encompasses artistic works created in or about the United States from the early colonial period through the 20th century. It serves as a reflection of the nation's cultural, social, and political history, often portraying significant moments, influential figures, and iconic landscapes that shaped American identity. Key artistic movements and periods include Colonial and Early American Art (17th-18th Century), 19th Century Romanticism and the Hudson River School, Realism and Social Commentary (Late 19th-20th Century), as well as Modernism and Regionalism (20th Century).
