🖼 Farallon Islands, Pacific Ocean, California, 1872

Golden light bathes rugged granite peaks rising from churning sea, rendered with meticulous detail and atmospheric perspective. Bierstadt's monumental California landscape exemplifies Hudson River School romanticism, celebrating American wilderness as sublime national treasure during westward expansion.
