I'd have to say that George Inness is my favorite.

Of course who's a traditionalist is an interesting question. The Academy loved making rules, and they held allegorical painting to be the highest form, and landscape painting to be the lowest. Inness was one of those painters who strongly disagreed with this dogma, and imbued his paintings with a spiritual power, making them something beyond mere representations of land. He also moved towards Tonalism, getting softer and more atmospheric as he went along.
