Book Description: Yale University Press, United States, 2002. Hardback. Book Condition: New. 254 x 228 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. Twelve days after the onset of the American Civil War in the April of 1861, Frederic Edwin Church, the most successful American landscape painter of his day, debuted his latest "Great Picture", a painting titled "The North". Despite favourable reviews, the painting failed to find a buyer. Faced with this unexpected setback, Church added a broken mast to the foreground and changed the work's title to "The Icebergs". He then shipped the painting to London, where it was finally sold to an English railroad magnate and subsequently disappeared from view for 116 years. This is the story of "The Icebergs", providing a detailed look at the cycle of fame, neglect, and resuscitation of both this masterwork and Church's career. In 1979, "The Icebergs" sold at auction for 2.5 million dollars, at the time the highest amount ever paid for an American painting. The sale coincided with an upswing in the popularity and acclaim accorded to American landscape painting, catalysing the market for American art and contributing to a revival in the prestige of Church and the Hudson River School.Drawing on extensive interviews with many of the people involved with the painting's rediscovery, sale, and eventual donation to the Dallas Museum of Art, the author considers the way marketing has defined "The Icebergs".
