[audiobook] Gold in Trib 1: Flying; Hiking and Gold Prospecting - Adventure in Wild Present-Day Alaska by Douglas Anderson at Arts-Photography

Description

Winslow Homer was American painter; illustrator and etcher; one of the two most admired American late 19th-century artists and is considered to be the greatest pictorial poet of outdoor life in the United States and its greatest watercolorist. Nominally a landscape painter; in a sense carrying on Hudson River school attitudes; Homer was an artist of power and individuality whose images are metaphors for the relationship of Man and Nature. A careful observer of visual reality; he was at the same time alive to the purely physical properties of pigment and colour; of line and form; and of the patterns they create. His work is characterized by bold; fluid brushwork; strong draughtsmanship and composition; and particularly by a lack of sentimentality. Although Homer excelled above all as a watercolorist; his oils and watercolours alike are characterized by directness; realism; objectivity; and splendid colour. His powerful and dramatic interpretations of the sea in watercolour have never been surpassed and hold a unique place in American art. They are in leading museums throughout the United States.
