Exploring Themes in American Art
Visit this site to survey American art by theme: Abstraction, The Figure, Historical Subjects, Landscape Painting, Marine Painting, Portraiture, Narrative Art, Scenes from Everyday Life, Still Life, and Topographical Views. Each topic provides an illustrated essay linking to corresponding images, including bibliographies, exhibition history, and provenance; a list of over 100 artists, including biographies and works in the Gallery's collection; and a glossary. An easy-to-navigate exhibit within the National Gallery of Art's site, this teaching resource was adapted from an interactive program produced by the Department of Education Resources and is one of several excellent online teaching programs.
