Up the Hudson

James Merritt Ives

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a river scene with a mountainous landscape. The river is wide and blue, with several sailboats on it, all with white sails. The riverbank in the foreground features large rocks and green trees. Two people stand on the left side of the riverbank, looking out at the river; one wears a hat and light-colored clothing, while the other wears a darker hat and darker clothing. The background shows a mountain range with green trees on either side of the river and a cloudy sky. The image is framed by a thin black line, and the words "UP THE HUDSON" are written at the bottom. The image has a beige border around it.
