The American artist William Trost Richards (1833–1905) was associated with both the Hudson River School and the American Pre-Raphaelite movement. Landscapes in oil, watercolor, graphite, and ink from the Museum’s rich collection of his works are shown with selections from a loan collection of Richards’s charming postcard-size watercolors of landscape and marine subjects in Pennsylvania, New England, and the British Isles.
