Winslow Homer was an outstanding American painter, best known for his marine landscapes and one of greatest figures in American art for all times. His oil paintings and watercolors in a similar way are distinguished by uncomplicated way, clear realism, objectivity, and exciting colors. His powerful and dramatic interpretations of the sea have never been outshined and grasp a unique place in American visual art. His paintings and watercolors are in most important museums throughout the United States and overseas. His work is distinguished by bold, fluid brush-work, strong composition, and chiefly by a lack of sentimentality.
