Description of Program:
David visits Contentment Island in Connecticut, where John F. Kensett (1816-1872) lived and
painted after the end of the Civil War and sought to reveal the serene quality of light and weather.
He discusses the evolution of John F. Kensett (1816-1872), from a Hudson River Artist-Explorer
to an American Luminist. Through Kensett, Dunlop will explore the techniques for evoking a
suffused unified light, the American appetite for tranquility in art after the Civil War, and the
eternal legacy of the Luminists.
