EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Winslow Homer's iconic painting "Breezing Up" from 1873-1876. The artwork, a gift of the W. L. and May T. Mellon Foundation to the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , showcases the artist's mastery in depicting scenes of transport and transportation. In this piece, we are transported to a choppy sea where a group of people, predominantly males including men and boys, navigate on a sailing boat. The vibrant colors bring life to the scene as they battle against the wind and waves. Homer's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, capturing both the excitement and serenity that come with sailing. Published in "Masterpieces of Painting" edited by Huntington Cairns and John Walker in 1944, this print serves as a timeless reminder of art's ability to transcend time periods. It beautifully represents not only an important moment in history but also showcases how water transport played a significant role during the 19th century. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art, this masterpiece continues to captivate visitors even into the 20th century. As we gaze upon this print today, it reminds us of Winslow Homer's brilliance as an artist while transporting us back through time on an exhilarating journey across rough seas.
