Winslow Homer was American illustrator; painter; and etcher who found his motivation in the American life and in the sea. The last decades of his life he lived as a loner and died in his studio on September 30; 1910. Although Homer out shined as a watercolorist; his oil painting and drawings alike are characterized by directness; realism and objectivity. His potent and spectacular images of the sea in watercolor have never been exceeded and seize a exclusive place in American visual art. Named a landscape painter; Homer was an artist of potential and uniqueness whose images are symbols for the connection between Nature and Man. A watchful spectator of reality; he was at the same time creative master of color; of line and forms. His work is branded by bold and fluid brush strokes; potent draftsmanship and strong composition; and obviously by a lack of any over-romanticizing.
