The Lost History of Frederic Edwin Church's 'The Icebergs'
Original: 'The Icebergs' Is One of Frederic Edwin Church's Most Spectacular Paintings. For Decades, No One Knew Where It Was
Smithsonian Magazine revisits 'The Icebergs', one of Hudson River School painter Frederic Edwin Church's most celebrated landscapes, and its remarkable provenance: for decades after its creation in the 1860s, the large-scale painting vanished from public knowledge, its whereabouts unknown. The piece traces how the work resurfaced and eventually found its way to the Dallas Museum of Art, where it remains a centerpiece of the collection.
Why now: A widely read history magazine is retelling the dramatic story of a famous American painting that was lost for decades before being rediscovered.
