Book excerpt: Winslow Homer - From Poetry to Fiction' is one of the largest and most comprehensive exhibitions of Winslow Homer wood engravings ever to tour American museums. This exhibition is comprised of many never before exhibited or published rare period photographs that relate to Homer's engravings from the early 1860s to the late 1870s. Three exceptional Homer lithographs from the Bufford print shop in Boston, c.1856-1857, are also included, as well as two handwritten documents related to the Civil War. Narrative text accompanies the exhibition with six illustrated introductory panels. Each work in the exhibition is accompanied with interpretive didactic wall labels. The exhibition catalogue accompanying this exhibition provides a broad overview of the works of art and the history of the period. All of Homer's wood engravings are described and interpreted in extensive detail. Several of the engraved works also include comparisons with alternative works by Homer and other artists of his time and before. The exhibition is organized into 13 subthemed areas based on Homer's subjects that include: The Bufford Workshop Apprentice Years, Early Portraits, Leisure Time Activity, Rural America, The War Years, Holidays, The Sporting Life, Courtship and Romance, Seaside Views, America's Youth, The changing Role of Women, Urbanization and Society, and Poetry and Literature. 00Exhibition: The Butler Institute of American Art, Butler Trumbull Branch, Howland Township, USA (22.01.-12.03.2017).

Book excerpt: This volume examines the illustrations of American artist Winslow Homer (1836-1910). Homer's paintings and illustrations have both received much attention, but the author focuses his attention on Winslow's book illustrations alone. Although the author does not deny that Winslow's illustrations are uneven in quality, he points out many fine qualities of the best ones and argues that Homer's approach to painting was greatly influenced by his work as an illustrator. Chapters on Homer's illustrations for juvenile fiction, fiction, poetry, history, etc. illustrate this point. This work further discusses Homer's art in relation to the publishers' demands, reading fashions among the book-buying public, and the technology of printing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive life of the painter who forged American identity visually, in art and illustration, with an impact comparable to that of Walt Whitman and Mark Twain in poetry and prose—yet whose own story has remained largely untold. In 1860, at the age of twenty-four, Winslow Homer (1836–1910) sold Harper’s Weekly two dozen wood engravings, carved into boxwood blocks and transferred to metal plates to stamp on paper. One was a scene that Homer saw on a visit to Boston, his hometown. His illustration shows a crowd of abolitionists on the brink of eviction from a church; at their front is Frederick Douglass, declaring “the freedom of all mankind.” Homer, born into the Panic of 1837 and raised in the years before the Civil War, came of age in a nation in crisis. He created multivalent visual tales, both quintessentially American and quietly replete with narrative for and about people of all races and ages. Whether using pencil, watercolor, or, most famously, oil, Homer addressed the hopes and fears of his fellow Americans and invited his viewers into stories embedded with universal, timeless questions of purpose and meaning. Like his contemporaries Twain and Whitman, Homer captured the landscape of a rapidly changing country with an artist’s probing insight. His tale is one of America in all its complexity and contradiction, as he evolved and adapted to the restless spirit of invention transforming his world. In Winslow Homer: American Passage, William R. Cross reveals the man behind the art. It is the surprising story of a life led on the front lines of history. In that life, this Everyman made archetypal images of American culture, endowed with a force of moral urgency through which they speak to all people today. Includes Color Images and Maps

Book excerpt: "With this psychosocial approach, Johns relates the wood-engraved illustrations of Homer's early career to the values of his family; his images of the Civil War to the context of his young manhood; his paintings of the social scene and young women's place in it to his own potential for marriage; his images of fisherwomen at Cullercoats and fishermen at Prout's Neck to his interior vision during middle age; and his intrigue with the sea in his late works to his identification with the larger processes of the universe."--BOOK JACKET.
