Coast of Maine, Winslow Homer

Coast of Maine

Winslow Homer, 1893

Winslow Homer observed the shoreline in various weather conditions and seasons after moving to live in near isolation in Prouts Neck, Maine, in 1883. Amid the remote and dramatic landscape, he depicted seascapes void of human life, focusing instead on an emotional response to nature. His marine scenes, larger than his earlier works, emphasize the vastness and power of the sea.
