Preservation Long Island: Explore the Art of Edward Lange / Interactive Website

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Art of Edward Lange Project is a collaborative effort to reexamine the life and art of Edward Lange (1846–1912), a German immigrant and prolific landscape painter who worked in and around Huntington, New York during the 1870s and 1880s. Lange sketched and painted town centers, local businesses, and private residences.

We are pleased to announce the launch of the first phase of the project that provides multiple ways for the public to experience Lange’s artwork and enrich our understanding of late nineteenth-century Long Island.

Explore The Art of Edward Lange Website

The Art of Edward Lange website brings together, in one place, nearly 100 of Lange’s artworks spread across more than 25 public and private collections. Featuring high-resolution photography and new research, the website is a valuable resource for understanding Long Island’s history and its ever-evolving landscapes.

Visit Edward Lange Pop-up Exhibition

Nearly thirty works by the artist, held in the collection of Preservation Long Island, create a kaleidoscopic window into late-nineteenth-century Long Island landscapes.

Join Looking for Lange Scavenger Hunt!

Preservation Long Island, along with the Town of Huntington Historic Partnership, invites the public to retrace Lange’s steps by participating in a “scavenger hunt” and social media challenge to find and photograph the places Edward Lange captured in his artworks across Huntington. Stops will include local museums where several Lange paintings can be viewed in person! Three lucky participants will receive a collection of Long Island-themed prizes!
