PRAISE FOR PICTURING AMERICA
"Talbott illustrates the narrative with beautiful watercolors, imagining the landscape Cole would have seen."--Washington Post
"Offers excellent reproductions of Cole's work: text, illustrations, and reproductions combine to trace the evolution of Cole's art and the progression of the Hudson River Movement, including its implications for modern art. Readers will fall in love with landscape in this captivating, inspiring picture book. A fine addition to art history collections."--SLJ
"Does a fine job of capturing an artist's life, while at the same time offering a history lesson on the natural beauty of the country, as well as an early push to protect the environment."--Booklist
"Smoothly blends commentary on Cole's life with exploration of his art, briefly but cogently guiding the young audience through the social meaning embedded in such works as The Course of Empire and The Voyage of Life series."--BCCB
