Published for the two-hundredth anniversary of Frederic Edwin Church’s birth, leading scholars explore how his wide-ranging work continues to resonate in today’s world. Frederic Church: Global Artist, designed by Miko McGinty with Empirica by Frere-Jones Type and Geograph by Klim Type Foundry, was published by Yale University Press in early 2026.
From Yale University Press:
In Frederic Church: Global Artist, original essays by scholars from across the humanities reveal Church as an artist enmeshed in the economic and territorial expansionism of the nineteenth century. Church’s works engage with questions of industrialization and environmental destruction, the rise and fall of empires, the construction of national identity, and the cataclysmic effects of slavery and civil war.
