Rocky Mountain School
Rocky Mountain School. Term applied retrospectively to 19th-century American artists who painted large pictures of the Rocky Mountains in a reverential spirit similar to that adopted by the Hudson River School. The German-born Albert Bierstadt and the English-born Thomas Moran (1837–1926) are the best-known artists embraced by the term.
