Since
the beginning of the 20th century, the natural beauty of the
California Coast and the Monterey Peninsula has attracted artists
from around the world, eager to try their hand at capturing the
spirit of the dramatic shoreline. Over the ensuing century, hundreds
of artists produced thousands of works, each a unique interpretation
of the region’s breathtaking scenery.
The
paintings we present today represent just a few of the countless
iconic and instantly recognizable views that make the area so famous.
These early and contemporary California artists have skillfully
captured the beauty of the valleys of Southern California, the elegant Eucalyptus trees of Northern California, and the
magnificent panoramic vistas of Highway 1 on the road to Big Sur.
