An Impressionistic Take on the Tappan Zee Bridge

This impressionistic take on the Tappan Zee Bridge (officially called the Governor Mario M. Cuomo Bridge), captured at the start of an early morning train journey from New York to Montreal, evokes the soft brushstrokes of an impressionist painting. The interplay of early morning light, heavy moisture in the air, and the impact of the train window glass created uniquely perfect conditions, resulting in a dreamy interpretation of the iconic bridge. This is the fourth and final photo in our Hudson River series, celebrating the beauty of this storied region. An Impressionistic Take on the Tappan Zee Bridge

The Hudson River as a Mirror

New Art and Other News / thomasf

Riding the train along an isolated section of the Hudson River in Columbia County, New York, we passed a narrow spit of land extending into the calm, reflective water. On this still, clear autumn day, the tiny dwelling perched on the spit seems like an idyllic retreat—a place to savor morning coffee while admiring the perfect mirror of hills, clouds, and trees. The spit and the small structure are also gently reflected in the glassy surface, adding to the tranquility of the scene. This serene reflection captures the quiet beauty and peaceful stillness of the moment. This is the third piece of four in our Hudson River series. The Hudson River as a Mirror

Traveling up the Hudson River by train near Beacon, NY on a warm October day, a vision of the ruins of Bannerman Castle on Pollepel Island emerged. Tinted in the soft blush of autumn light, the castle looms like an echo of a long-lost civilization. Constructed in the early 1900s as a munitions storage facility, its crumbling archways amid lush foliage evoke the grandeur of ancient ruins. The scene is reminiscent of Rome’s timeless beauty. This artwork captures the serene beauty of Bannerman Castle. It offers a glimpse into the Hudson Valley’s rich past, natural splendor and architectural history.
