I love his paintings depicting the rugged beauty of New England's coastline. Other 19th century painters' works - while they are undoubtedly masterpieces - may not necessarily reflect their country of origin. But with Homer's, you can essentially tell that they are American.

Many of his works are hypnotizing, riveting. Among the best artists worldwide, ever.

That was awsome respect. He was blessed with a gift.

We need more artists like him.

Winslow Homer (February 24, 1836 - September 29, 1910) was an American landscape painter and printmaker, best known for his marine subjects. He is considered one of the foremost painters in 19th-century America and a preeminent figure in American art. Largely self-taught, Homer began his career working as a commercial illustrator. He subsequently took up oil painting and produced major studio works characterized by the weight and density he exploited from the medium. He also worked extensively in watercolor, creating a fluid and prolific oeuvre, primarily chronicling his working vacations.

He is by far my favorite artist.

Great work of a Master Painter! Thank you

good video :)love the arts

I was studying him at school last year (2015)

No-one captured an atmosphere like Winslow did!

No. It was the coast of England that transformed Winslow into the artist we know.

Never heard of him but planning to go to an exhibition at the National Gallery (London) this year.

Amazing

Yep named after Maxwell House coffee. :) It isn't that strang of a name. But it is what I was stuck with. :)
