 Nocturne in Black and Gold: The Falling Rocket James McNeill Whistler ca. 1875; Oil on panel; 60.3 x 46.4 cm Tonalism (about 1880 to 1915) is an artform getting its beginnings from the 1880s when American painters began to produce paintings in which landscape forms are painted with an overall tone of colored atmosphere or mist. Usually dark, neutral hues, such as gray, brown or blue, would dominate such compositions. During the late 1890s American art critics began to use the term ‘tonal’ to describe these works. Two of the leading painters associated with this style are George Inness and James McNeill Whistler. George Inness was a United States painter, born in Newburgh, New York on May 1, 1825, and who died at Bridge of Allan, Scotland, on August 3, 1894. ...
