description:
"The first in Thomas Cole's Course of Empire. Dawn breaks over a wilderness as nomadic hunters chase a wounded deer and storm clouds wreathe the mountain. Nature is supreme; man clings to its edges.",

src: pastoral,
title: "The Pastoral or Arcadian State",
year: "1834",
description:
"The second in Thomas Cole's Course of Empire. Morning light, cleared fields, a Stonehenge-like temple, an old man tracing geometry in the dirt while a boy sketches a figure on stone. Civilization stirs; agriculture, science, art, all still close to the earth.",

title: "The Consummation of Empire",
year: "1836",
description:
"The central panel of Thomas Cole's Course of Empire. High noon over a marble city. A triumphant ruler crosses the bridge in an elephant-drawn car, temples crowd the bay, the harbor brims with ships. Splendor so total it can only precede collapse.",

src: destruction,
title: "Destruction",
year: "1836",
description:
"The fourth panel of Thomas Cole's Course of Empire. Storm and sack. Invaders pour through the gates, the temple porch becomes a catapult, ships burn in the harbor, a headless warrior presides over the slaughter as the sky turns to fire.",

src: desolation,
title: "Desolation",
year: "1836",
description:
"The final panel of Thomas Cole's Course of Empire. Sunset and moonrise over silent ruins. Vines climb a lone column, a bird nests where a temple stood, deer roam the broken friezes. No human figures remain. Nature outlasts everything man builds.",
