- Thomas Hill – Mount Tallac from Lake Tahoe, 1880
- William Stanley Haseltine – Mont Saint Michel, 1868
- William Stanely Haseltine – Indian Rock, Narrangansett, Rhode Island, 1863
- William Stanely Haseltine – Ruins of the Roman Theater at Tarmorina, Sicily, 1889
- Frederic Edwin Church – Rainy Season in the Tropics, 1866
- Frederic Edwin Church – Rainy Season in the Tropics, 1866 (detail)
