Winslow Homer
(1836 – 1910) was an American landscape painter
and printmaker, best known for his marine subjects.
He is considered one of the foremost painters in 19th
century America and a preeminent figure in American
art. Largely self-taught, Homer began his career working
as a commercial illustrator. He subsequently took up
oil painting and produced major studio works characterized
by the weight and density he exploited from the medium.
He also worked extensively in watercolor, creating a
fluid and prolific oeuvre, primarily chronicling his
working vacations.
