Winslow Homer Biography

Winslow Homer - (1836-1910). Homer is famed for his paintings of the sea that enthralled him so, Winslow Homer was one of the premier naturalistic painters of the 19th century. Utilizing brilliant colors, keen design and striking originality, Homer achieved fame during his lifetime that lasted well beyond. Homer was born in Boston in 1836. He apprenticed to a lithographer and worked as a free-lance illustrator. In 1859 he moved to New York and studied painting part-time; by 1862 he was painting the Civil War for Harper's Weekly. In 1866 he spent ten months in France. The significance of light and the direct rendering of motifs in Homer's subsequent paintings in the 1860's and 1870's bore a resemblance to Impressionism. In 1881 and 1882, Homer visited England and became enraptured by the sea. He found the sea magnificent, beautiful and possessing enormous power - power that was a danger to those who looked to it for their livelihood. He lived on a secluded part of the Maine coast from 1883 until his death in 1910, painting that coast; he also wintered in the Bahamas, Cuba and Florida, painting there as well. His works are included in collections at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, the Art Institute of Chicago and the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
