Winslow Homer One of the most well known artists to come out of the Civil War, Homer was born in Boston, Mass. February 24, 1836. At 19, Homer was apprenticed to a local lithographer, and his drawings were soon appearing in the illustrated periodicals of the day. In 1859 he moved to New York City to study at the National Academy of Design, supporting himself by contributing drawings to Harper's Weekly. In 1861 Harpers sent him to Washington to sketch Abraham Lincoln's inauguration. Homers initial war drawings for Harpers depicted Maj. Gen. George B. McClellan's army on the banks of the Potomac in Oct. 1861. The following year he was dispatched as a "special artist" to cover the Peninsula Campaign. Though he did not serve again as a special, he made frequent excursions to the battlefronts and filled his sketchbook with drawings, from which he worked in his studio in New York. Double-page woodcuts of his illustrations depicting battles and camp scenes appeared in Harpers throughout the war years. Homer was not specifically a combat artist; his work was concerned with the intimate moments of camp life and human interest rather than with the panorama of clashing armies. Supplied with his firsthand observations made at the front, he translated these drawings into canvases such as

Winslow Homer Winslow Homer (1836-1910) High Cliff, Coast of Maine Oil on Canvas 76.5 x 97.2cm (30 1/8 x 38 1/4 inches) National Museum of American Art, Gift of William T. Evans Winslow Homer was the master portrayer of outdoor life in America in the nineteenth century. He painted summer resorts and farms, the coasts, the forests, the mountains, and the hardy men who inhabited themsailors, fishermen, and woodsmenwith such a fresh approach and boldness of vision that his work now ranks among the highest achievements in American art. While man's relationship to nature always held a fascination for Homer, it was the awesome power of the sea that dominated his mature canvases. He spent the last twenty years of his life in remote Prout's Neck, Maine, where he came to know intimately the rocky coastline and its changing moods. In High Cliff , Homer allows us neither distance nor escape. He provides us with no easy entry into the picture's space. We are thrust into the midst of the drama being enacted before us: the relentless crash of the surf against the implacable rock. Our view is close-up, cropped, and devoid of any superficial details that might compete for attention. The strong diagonal composition and the use of contrasting colorsthe muted blue-green water clashing with the dark brown of the rocksare technical devices that heighten the work's tension. The wet cliff glistening in the light, the threatening waves, and the bursting spray, modeled with broad, robust brushwork, convey the scene's intense energy.

Book Search: Keywords Author Title or ISBN More Options Power Search Search Hints Google contents of this website: Google full text of our books: Winslow Homer and the Critics: Forging a National Art in the 1870s Margaret C. Conrads This book is out of print Reviews Table of Contents Winslow Homer's luminous watercolor seascapes and highly spirited portraits of children and outdoorsmen are some of the most recognizable and cherished works in the history of American art. This catalogue, published in conjunction with a major traveling exhibition, examines his pictures from the 1870s, the least-studied period of this perennially popular American artist. Debunking the common myth that Homer worked in isolation, Margaret Conrads reveals him as a controversial artist who was an integral part of the dizzying New York art scene of the 1870s. Indeed, Homer was the American artist most frequently discussed by the press at this timeoften with simultaneous commendation and vilification. By viewing Homer's works of the 1870s through the lens of contemporaneous criticism, the author explains how and why the painter embodied the critics' high hopes for an art that expressed national values. She finds reflected in his vivid images an ongoing struggle to meet these expectations, even as he challenged and helped to redefine the artistic conventions governing American aesthetics. With almost one hundred full-color plates and nearly sixty black-and-white illustrations, this handsome volume is a remarkable record of an important period not only in Winslow Homer's career but also in the fascinating art world of late-nineteenth-century America.

A trip to France in 1866 and 1867 exposed him to the early work of the Impressionists and sparked his interest in light and color. Homer's first serious use of watercolor may have been precipitated by an important exhibition in New York early in 1873. It was during that summer in Gloucester, Massachusetts, that the artist produced a series of small watercolors involving the theme of children playing. The decorative flatness and sharp contrasts of light and shade in Homer's works of this period relate to his ongoing career as a magazine illustrator. In

DISCUSS Indepth Arts News: "Winslow Homer: The Civil War Years and Winslow Homer: The Gloucester Years (Focus Gallery 3) " 2000-12-02 until 2001-03-04 Columbia Museum of Art Columbia, SC, USA Between 1857 and 1875, Winslow Homer produced more than 280 wood engravings for major regional and national newspapers. He began working with Ballou's Pictorial Drawing-Room Companion; and later moved on to other major papers of the day including Harpers Bazaar; Harper's Weekly; Appleton's Journal of Literature, Science, and Art; Scribner's Monthly; Hearth and Home; Our Young Folks; and Every Saturday. His greatest output occurred during the Civil War when he covered the action on the front lines and the every day tedium in camp. Harper's Weekly Once the war was over, his interest turned to watercolors and oils. The major exception was the Gloucester series in 1873 and 1874. In a final series for Harper's Weekly he produced twenty-two genre scenes including Snap-the-Whip. There has been some discussion over the years among scholars as to whether these are by Winslow Homer or after Winslow Homer. Current thinking places them in the former, rather than the latter category, and as such are legitimate works of art by a prominent American artist. As Homer matured and refined his style and technique, the engravings became better artistically and as a result, the later prints are more appealing than the earlier efforts.

The three-year-old gallery, converted from a large mansion with princely gardens and a commanding view, has only the glimmerings of a collection of its own; but if it can put on more shows like this one, it should become a favorite attraction. This show was organized by Lloyd Goodrich, director of the Whitney Museum of American Art and the leading authority on Homer. The paintings are mostly in watercolor, a medium of which Homer was a master, although he did not take to it until the advanced age of 37. But those earlier paintings by contrast cast a moving spell of innocence and charm—an appealing chapter in the life of an artist whom Goodrich calls "the greatest pictorial poet of outdoor America in his time."

Contemporary Art Winslow Homer A highlight of the L. D. M. Sweat Galleries is the Winslow Homer Gallery, featuring paintings, watercolors, and graphics by this most beloved and acclaimed American artist. The Museum's collection of five pivotal oil paintings traces Homer's career from his early work as a Civil War correspondent for Harper's Weekly through the last two and a half decades of his life, which he spent on the coast of Maine. In a studio at Prouts Neck, just 12 miles from the Portland Museum of Art, he created the culminating paintings of his career. Homer's late seascapes, like the Museum's Weatherbeaten (1894), are alternately brooding and ecstatic, situating mankind within the natural drama of assault and resistance, struggle and survival. These paintings are augmented by several additional oils on long-term loan to the Museum, as well as a constantly rotating selection from the Museum's collection of 14 watercolors and nearly 400 prints. Also on view is a watercolor box owned and used by Homer, offering valuable insight into the working technique of this premier painter of Maine.

The utter simplicity of the composition, the fidelity to local coloring, and spirited rendering of the wave tossed boat and its anxious occupants-these are elements characteristic of Mr. Homer's work, but always welcome because Mr. Homer always has something to say." 24/9/07 3:37 PM zipthwung said... liger liger burning bright" 24/9/07 6:03 PM Mark said...
