ABOUT THIS PIECE Romanticism Painter Ralph Albert Blakelock's Moonlight Indian Encampment was created in 1889 and the painting is in Smithsonian American Art Museum. The original size of the work is 68,8 x 86,8 cm (27 x 34 in) and is made of oil on canvas. One of the most mysterious nineteenth-century artists, Blakelock worked his obsessive painterly magic in a world of shadows and indeter-minacy. He traveled to the West in 1869 and again in 1872 to make drawings of such Native American life as still existed and based a host of scenes such as this one on his sketches. Unlike the heroic panoramas of the West by Albert Bierstadt and Thomas Moran, which were in-tended to amaze awestruck viewers, this atmospheric picture quivers on the canvas like a dream. The dark, densely painted foreground describes canoes, a glowing campfire, teepees, and the lacy trees that form spiky patterns against the heavens. Earthly silence becomes unearthly. Not so much a record of rapidly changing Native American culture, this image is instead a mood poem from the mind and heart of a painter who would, by the end of his life, endure an agonizing descent into madness.   The Artist: Ralph Albert Blakelock (1847 - 1919) was a romanticist American painter known primarily for his landscape paintings related to the Tonalism movement.   TECHNICAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE PRODUCT Art Movement: Romanticism The Theme of the Work: Moonlight Landscape
