EDITORS COMMENTS
The City of Saint Paul, Dubuque, c. 1866" is a captivating oil painting by Alfred Thompson Bricher that transports viewers back to the bustling streets and tranquil waters of mid-19th century America. This small yet powerful artwork measures 20.3 x 35.6 cm and captures the essence of urban life during this time. The painting depicts a picturesque scene overlooking the city of Saint Paul, with its hilly landscape and stunning coastline serving as a backdrop for the activities taking place below. A paddlesteamer floats peacefully along the water, reflecting the vibrant colors of sunset on its surface. As we observe this romantic era piece, we can't help but feel drawn into the scene itself - witnessing people departing or arriving at their destinations, setting off on journeys or simply enjoying moments of quiet reflection by the shoreline. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the smoke billowing out from chimneys to background figures going about their daily lives. Bricher's work belongs to the Hudson River School movement, known for capturing natural phenomena and landscapes with great precision and emotion. In "The City of Saint Paul", he masterfully combines elements of nature and human activity to create a harmonious composition that exudes tranquility. This print allows us to appreciate Bricher's artistic talent while offering us a glimpse into an important period in American history. It serves as a reminder that even amidst progress and social activity, there are serene moments where one can find solace in nature's beauty.
