Summary : Winslow Homer is a core figure of 19th-century American art. Although known for his oil paintings of Civil War scenes and the Atlantic coastline, Homer’s oeuvre encompasses a variety of themes, from childhood games through the life-and-death struggles of man and nature. The Clark Art Institute holds one of the greatest collections of Homer’s work across all media, including wood engravings, etchings, watercolours, drawings and paintings from nearly all phases of his career. The collection was assembled predominately by Robert Sterling Clark, who purchased his first Homer painting in 1915, and maintained a passion for the artist throughout the rest of his collecting career.
