The Course of Empire - Savage State
The Course of Empire is a five-part series of paintings created by Thomas Cole in the years 1833–36. It is notable in part for reflecting popular American sentiments of the times, when many saw pastoralism as the ideal phase of human civilization, fearing that empire would lead to gluttony and inevitable decay.
This is the first in a new series of multiple exposure images inspired by Thomas Cole's Course of Empire.
