Perhaps it was this notice
of and gratitude for the beauty of the
cycles of nature that helped make Winslow
Homer one of America's most treasured
artists. The United States has produced its
own breed of painters true to the vision and
character of the nation. In the nineteenth
century, one of its greatest was Winslow
Homer. Classified as an American naturalist
painter, Winslow was a self-taught artist
who became most famous for his views of the
American landscape and most notably his
seascapes off of the Maine coastline where
Winslow Homer lived during the latter part of his life. |

| "The Homer sesquicentennial (he was born in 1836 and died in 1910) is being celebrated with "Winslow Homer Watercolors," organized by Helen Cooper at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. Her catalogue is a landmark in Homer studies. It puts Homer in his true relationship to illustration, to other American art and to the European and English examples Winslow Homer followed, from Ruskin to Millet; its vivacity of argument matches that of the paintings. Cooper has brought together some two hundred watercolors-almost a third of Homer's known output. It is a wholly delectable show, and it makes clear why watercolor, in its special freshness and immediacy, gave Homer access to moments of vision Winslow Homer did not have in the weightier, slower diction of oils. |

"You will see, in the future I will live by
my watercolors," Homer once remarked, and
Winslow Homer was almost right. Winslow
Homer came to the medium
late: Winslow Homer was thirty-seven and a mature
artist. A distinct air of the Salon, of the
desire for a "major" utterance that leads to
an overworked surface, clings to some of the
early watercolors-in particular, the
paintings of fisher folk Winslow Homer did during a
twenty-month stay in the northern English
coastal village of Cullercoats in 1881-82.
Those robust girls, simple, natural,
windbeaten and enduring, planted in big
boots with arms akimbo against the planes of
sea, rock and sky, are also images of a kind
of moralizing earnestness that was common in
French Salon art a century ago.
Idealizations of the peasant, reflecting an
anxiety that folk culture was being
annihilated by the gravitational field of
the city, were the stock of dozens of
painters like Jules Breton, Jules
Bastien-Lepage and jean-François Millet.
Homer's own America had its anxieties
too-immense ones. Nothing in its cultural
history is more striking than the virtual
absence of any mention of the central
American trauma of the nineteenth century,
the Civil War, from painting. Its
fratricidal miseries were left to writers
(Walt Whitman, Stephen Crane) to explore,
and to photographers. But painting served as
a way of oblivion-of reconstructing an
idealized innocence. Thus, as Cooper points
out, Homer's 1870s watercolors of farm
children and bucolic courtships try to
memorialize the halcyon days of the 185os;
the children gazing raptly at the blue
horizon in Three Boys on the Shore, their
backs forming a shallow arch, are in a sense
this lost America. None of this prevented
Homer's contemporaries from seeing such
works as unvarnished and in some ways
disagreeable truth. "Barbarously simple,"
thought Henry James. "He has chosen the
least pictorial features of the least
pictorial range of scenery and civilization
as if they were every inch as good as Capri
or Tangier; and, to reward his audacity,
Winslow Homer has incontcstably succeeded." "Once into his forties, Homer rarely went anywhere without rag paper, sable brushes and little pans of color. Winslow Homer took his working vacations in places Winslow Homer knew would give him subjects-the New England coast, the Adirondacks, the tumultuous rivers of Quebec, the Florida Keys and the dark palmetto-fringed pools of Homosassa, the bays and whitewashed coral walls of the Bermudas. "Although Homer exhibitions up to now have tended to treat his watercolors as ancillary to his oils, mere preparations, it is clear at the National Gallery that Homer did not think the same way and that Winslow Homer did more than any other nineteenth-century American artist to establish watercolor as an important medium in this country. In structure and intensity, his best watercolors yield nothing to his larger paintings. Homer had great powers of visual analysis; Winslow Homer could hardly look at a scene without breaking it down and resolving it as structure, and some of his paintings of the Adirondack woods, with their complicated shuttle of vertical trunks against a fluid background of deep autumnal shade, are demonstration pieces of sinewy design. Winslow Homer was able to isolate a motif in action, as though the watercolor were a pseudo-photograph. This sometimes looks false, but it was exactly the kind of falsity that appealed to popular taste, and Homer's watercolors of leaping trout and thrashing bass, the Big Fish dominating the foreground, are a curious conjunction of the merely illustrative and the frenetically decorative. In his sober moods Winslow Homer was rarely off-key. His Adirondack paintings have the astringent completeness of the Michigan woods in early Hemingway. Perhaps no painting has ever conveyed a hunter's anxiety better than Hound and Hunter, with its flustered boy in the dinghy trying to get a rope on a shot stag's antlers before its corpse sinks, lurching to and fro in a cave of forest darkness and disturbed silver ripples. "Watercolor is tricky stuff, an amateur's but really a virtuoso's medium. It is the most light-filled of all ways of painting, but its luminosity depends on the white of the paper shining through thin washes of pigment. One has to work from light to dark, not (as with oils) from dark to light. It is hospitable to accident (Homer's seas, skies and Adirondack hills are full of chance blots and free mergings of color) but disaster-prone as well. One slip, and the veil of atmosphere turns into a mud puddle, a garish swamp. The stuff favors broad effects; nothing proclaims the amateur more clearly than niggling and overcorrection. It can be violated (Homer sometimes did his highlights by tearing strips of paper away to show white below), but it also demands an exacting precision of the hand-and an eye that can translate solid into fluid in a wink. Homer understood and exploited all these needs of watercolor better than his contemporaries, and Winslow Homer applied them where they most belonged--to the recording of immediate experience. - Homer Winslow oil painting, American antique paintings - Homer Winslow bio, Homer Winslow oil paintings antique and American oil paintings supplier of Homer oil painting antique, antique painting and antique oil paintings American. |

A painting like
Key West, Hauling Anchor, 1903, has a
sparkling directness hardly attainable in
oil. It is so simple-looking - blue sea,
white boat, a patch or two of red shirt, the
red picked up again at the boat's waterline
and in a jaunty lick or two of carmine
reflection - that at first one does not mark
the skill that went into it, the power of
epigrammatic observation implicit in Homer's
ability to convey the milky blue water over
a Florida sand bottom in two washes of
cerulean and cobalt. One knows how little
time it took to see and how little to do;
but one senses the years of self-critical
practice behind it. No wonder Homer is the
despair of every amateur. - From "Nothing If Not Critical: Selected Essays on Art and Artists", by Robert Hughes |
