Heart of the Andes by Frederic Edwin Church

Heart of the Andes (1859)

Frederic Edwin Church | Hudson River School | Oil on canvas

Snowy mountains tower over a lush jungle valley with a sparkling waterfall. It's like visiting South America without leaving the museum!

Did you know? When this painting was first shown in New York in 1859, more than 12,000 people paid 25 cents each to see it! Some waited in line for hours, and visitors were handed opera glasses so they could study every tiny detail.
