Northeaster

This Met x Wendover Art Group design is a reproduction of an original work of art in The Metropolitan Museum of Art collection.
Our inspiration: Northeaster
Winslow Homer (American, 1836–1910)
Oil on canvas; 34 1/2 x 50 in.; 1895, reworked by 1901
Gift of George A. Hearn, 1910 10.64.5
Later in life, Homer increasingly edited his paintings, clarifying his compositions and their meanings. In 1895, when he first exhibited this epic scene of a winter storm at Prouts Neck, Maine, it included two figures crouching on the rocks in the lower left corner. Between 1896 and 1900, the artist eliminated the human presence and intensified the spray from the crashing waves.
