Works by Hudson River School masters figure largely in “Water Views from the Figge Collection,” an exhibition on display through Aug. 21 at the Figge Art Museum, appropriately overlooking the Mississippi River, in Davenport, Iowa.
The exhibition features works by Japanese and European artists, all related to water, along with America's 19th c. Hudson River School represented by such artists as Asher Durand, Sanford R. Gifford, and Thomas Moran.
The images dispayed show varied interpretations of relationships between water and nature, humanity, and the physical and spiritual worlds.
