Albert Bierstadt - L'Ouest sauvage

Albert Bierstadt est un peintre paysagiste, connu pour ses panoramas grandioses de la vallée de Yosemite dans la Sierra Nevada.
Albert Bierstadt was born in Prussia, but his family moved to the United States when he was one year old. He returned to study painting for several years in Düsseldorf. He became part of the second generation of the Hudson River School in New York, an informal group of like-minded painters who started painting along the Hudson River. Their style was based on carefully detailed paintings with romantic, almost glowing lighting, sometimes called luminism. Bierstadt was an important interpreter of the western landscape, and he is also grouped with the Rocky Mountain School.
