Description
Oil on canvas by Winslow Homer - 1894. Homer�s first biographer, William Howe Downes, recounted that the artist was sitting outside his studio one summer evening in 1894 when he exclaimed, ��I�ve got an idea!�. . . He almost ran into the studio, seized his painting outfit, emerged from the house, and clambered down over the rocks towards the shore.� This picture �was the result of that impulse and four or five hours� work. . . . It was painted wholly in and by the light of the moon, and never again retouched.� The spot of red pigment on the horizon denotes the lighthouse on Wood Island, to the south of Prouts Neck, Maine.
