What do George Clarke and Thomas Cole have in common?

More than you might think.

Join Betsy Jacks, Executive Director Emerita of the Thomas Cole National Historic Site, for the second lecture in our Hyde Hall Talks series as she explores the surprising connections between these two Anglo-American visionaries. Both were drawn to the beauty of New York's landscape, shared a love of trees and picturesque scenery, and left lasting legacies shaped by the Romantic movement.

Discover how a landscape painter and a landscape designer found inspiration in the same natural world.

Join us this weekend for the second film in the Hyde Hall Film Series: The Heiress (1949), screening Saturday from 7–9 PM in the Wood Barn. Popcorn and drinks will be available!

Starring Olivia de Havilland, Montgomery Clift, and Ralph Richardson, this acclaimed drama follows a shy young woman whose romance may conceal motives of fortune and ambition.

🎬 Trivia: Director William Wyler made Olivia de Havilland carry her suitcases up a staircase 37 times before finally choosing the take in which she briefly paused and leaned on the handrail—a small moment that became the scene's defining touch.

Don't miss this classic on the big screen!

Henry James’s Washington Square (1880) is a quietly devastating portrait of love, money, and emotional cruelty in 19th-century New York. Through the shy and underestimated Catherine Sloper, James explores how social expectations and family power can shape — and harden — a life. The later adaptation The Heiress captures the same tension with unforgettable elegance and bitterness.
