Riverscape w/ Freighter
Oil on Linen
Winter 2024/2025
Stephen Stoller
Painted onsite in Hastings-on-Hudson, NY, Riverscape w/ Freighter presents the Hudson in motion and industry. A solitary barge drifts across the river’s surface, dwarfed by the vertical grandeur of the Palisades rising behind it. Rendered in golden ochres and deep umbers, the cliffs radiate with texture, while a lone bird soars above—balancing the engineered presence below with the freedom of flight. In this composition, Stephen Stoller explores scale, contrast, and coexistence, honoring both the labor and beauty that shape the river’s daily life.
