Few painters bring the landscape magic like Bierstadt.
I saw some originals in Cleveland a few years ago, reproductions don't do justice
to the depth and atmosphere he captured in oils.

Thanks for the link!

today especially, the day Joe Biden was inaugurated! They mean so much now. We have a physically beautiful country.

Thank you!
