Alaskan Coast Range is an 1889 landscape painting by the German American painterAlbert Bierstadt that presently hangs in the Smithsonian American Art Museum. While traveling through British Columbia, Bierstadt took a steamship to Alaska in search of more rugged landscapes. He ended up shipwrecked in Loring, Alaska. While sheltering in a nearby Native American settlement, he drew his littoral Alaskan surroundings; this work is most likely an oil sketch made for further detailing.{{cite web|url=https://americanart.si.edu/artwork/alaskan-coast-range-2058|title=SAAM : Alaskan Coast Range|website=Americanart.si.edu|accessdate=28 November 2018}}
