"Potomac River School" is an illustrated text, with over 150 color illustrations of paintings by artists Mary Kokoski, Andrei Kushnir, and Barbara Nuss.

After the unprecedented turmoil experienced in the 20th century, with ensuing artistic experiments of modernism, non-objectivism and other isms, the 21st century brings a return to the appreciation of enduring and permanent values in art. The Potomac River School, an original and indigenous school of American painters, is among the first to reestablish the direct relationship with Nature that will define the art of the new century.
