The Course of Empire is a five-part series of paintings created by Thomas Cole in the years 1834-36. It is notable in part for reflecting popular American sentiments of the times, when many saw pastoralism as the ideal phase of human civilization, while fearing that empire would lead to gluttony and inevitable decay
Pt1. The Savage State
Pt2. The Arcadian or Pastoral State
Pt3. The Consummation of Empire
Pt4. The Destruction of Empire
Pt5. Desolation
