Expulsion, Moon and Firelight (1828) is oil on canvas painting by the founder of the Hudson River School and American artist Thomas Cole. This enigmatic painting of visionary character is probably a version of another work by the artist, entitled The Expulsion of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden (now in Boston). It depicts the same landscape without the figures. The painting (91 x 122 cm) is now in the collection of the Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza, Madrid.
