"The Architect's Dream" (1840) Note the text on the stone: "Painted by T Cole for I Town [unreadable] 1840"



"Expulsion from the Garden of Eden" (1828) There are two tiny figures at left.



"Expulsion - Moon and Firelight" (1828)



"The Savage State". One of a series of five paintings titled The Course of Empire, 1834 - 1836. Note the cliff with the bolder on it overlooking a bay is seen in all five paintings, but the perspective changes.



"The Arcadian or Pastoral State"



"The Consummation of Empire"



"The Destruction of Empire", the most popular of the series, which is why a larger scan of the painting was available.



And the fifth, "Desolation".



"View on the Catskills - Early Autumn" (1837)



"A River in the Catskills" (1843) A small steam train crosses a bridge in the background -- this would have been a fairly new technology at the time.


One of two paintings, "The Departure" (1837)



"The Return" (1837)
 


Another two-part series, "The Past" (1838)


 
"The Present" (1838)
