	Quote: Oh my. That Chuch painting blew me away. I might try to get a copy framed. Roger Hello Roger, I have just read at Wikipedia that Church, while committed to the natural sciences, was "always concerned with including a spiritual dimension in his works" (the quote is from Büttner, Nils (2006). Landscape Painting: A History. New York: Abbeville Press Publishers. pp. 283–28). Below is a great painting by him which, if I remember well, was posted in one of your forums on art maybe a year ago. I remember reading about his visiting South America at the time he was most active. If I am not mistaken, the big snow-capped mountain in the background is the Chimborazo vulcano in Ecuador - a small country in the north of my own country, Peru.

	So beautiful. I love the little details like the smoke in the distance on the first two paintings. This brings the painting to life, like movement in animal subjects. A master of perspective too.
