Painting
Thomas Doughty was an American landscape painter who pioneered romantic naturalism in early 19th-century Philadelphia, working primarily in oil on canvas. His compositions featured atmospheric effects and intimate views of the Delaware River valley and surrounding wilderness, establishing conventions for American landscape painting that would influence successive generations. His work was included in MoMA's landmark 1976 exhibition "The Natural Paradise: Painting in America 1800, 1950".
