The summer exhibition at the National Gallery in London is Thomas Cole: Eden to Empire, focusing on the story of the Bolton-born artist who emigrated to the USA and became a pioneer in American landscape painting. His large, cinematic landscapes depict real-life locations and the rise and fall of imaginary empires, and many of the works featured in the National Gallery’s exhibition have never before travelled outside the USA. They will feature alongside paintings by Turner, Constable, Claude and Martin.
