Original Pencil drawing, drawing by the American artist Winslow Homer (1836-1910)
, likely a page from one of his sketchbooks. The drawing depicts a person seated, wearing a hat. The visual style and subject matter are consistent with Homer's work, which often featured scenes of outdoor life, including people, landscapes, and the sea. He frequently used graphite on paper for his sketches and studies. While many of his drawings are studies for larger works, they are also recognized as works of art in their own right.
The drawing shows a figure in a bucket hat, sitting on what appears to be a shore or field with a body of water and a faint building in the background. The signature "WINSLOW HOMER" is visible in the bottom left corner. Some of Homer's drawings and watercolors, particularly from his time in England in the early 1880s, focused on the lives of fishermen and the rugged coastal environment. The drawing's style, with its quick, expressive lines, suggests it may be a study from life |
