Homer Winslow was one of most important artist in USA at XIX century. He founded american school of arts which was opposite to European school. Majority of his works were painted by watercolor and gouache, he prefered draw an marine, so we is famous as marinist. I chosen this picture because my love to sea,which was inculcate my mother,artist also. Here I see calmness and power of water surface and wisdom of old fishman. Who exists onthe center of the picture. The artist wanted to concentrate viewer's attention at him, show him as the main figure here. The picture was pinted in 1894 it was the second period in creative artist's life. In this period he draw his works in dark and quite grim colors because of his mother's death in 1984 and moving whith his father from New York to Maine. I wouldn't call this picture harsh or murky, in my opinion here is more of quiet,seriosness and realistic.
