Abstract (en)
Examines Homer's paintings and watercolors of Adirondack subjects, focusing on the originality of his approach to these compositions and to his treatment of the figures. Identifies some of the men who served as Homer's models and discusses how he depicted them. Notes the change in feeling in these paintings, from a sense of optimism in the 1870s to a feeling of disillusion and loss in the 1890s, moods mirrored in Homer's own life and in American society as a whole.
