Dawn and Dusk: Tonalism in Connecticut

Tonalism is a transitional movement that grew out of and reacted to the Hudson River School of painting and laid the groundwork for modernism. Evocative landscapes, often painted from memory, are the primary genre. This exhibition explores Tonalism from the 1880s to the early 20^th century through artists from the Northeast, including a number who painted in Connecticut. The forty paintings in this exhibition are drawn from private and institutional collections.
