The Hudson River School of Painting
The Hudson River School of Painting foreshadowed a nature cult that thrives in America. This is the second thing that comes up when I search for pictures of mountains. It shows vast sweeps of land and dramatic feats of nature, similar to the HRSP. Although painting is no longer a major art form, the same concept has moved to other media. The above is an excellent example of nature photography, and nature documentaries are common. As with social capital, we must be careful not confuse a change in media with a disappearance.

Nor do we want to obscure the reality that a photograph is not a painting.
