Jasper Francis Cropsey was born in agricultural Staten Island. As usual in many farmer families, Jasper had to help on the farm during the labor-intensive summer months and only attended school in winter. His constitution was generally weak and he was often ill, which made it impossible for him to continue the family business.
Cropsey moved to New York and he became an architect. Fulfillment through architectural projects failed to materialize and his designs were lined on the edge of landscape sketches. His employer encouraged Jasper to try his hand at watercolor and oil.
For his first landscape representations, Cropsey chose the landscape of New Jersey and Greenwood Lake. Especially the Greenwood Lake appears as a recurring motif in his works. As an artist he pursued the goal of depicting American nature in all its uniqueness. Cropsey was particularly concerned with the depiction of atmosphere, weather and clouds and the changing seasons. His love of nature made him one of the most important representatives of the Hudson River School.
His most famous work, Autumn - On the Hudson River, is dedicated to the favorite season of Jasper Francis Cropsey, whose lush color scheme reflects the spectrum of the Indian Summer.
