A fascinating exploration of the time Winslow Homer spent in
England and how it influenced his art Winslow Homer (1836-1910) is
widely regarded as the greatest American painter of the 19th
century, but it is not well known that he spent a pivotal period of
time on the other side of the Atlantic. The eighteen months Homer
spent in England in 1881 and 1882-studying the work of masters such
as J. M. W. Turner and Lawrence Alma-Tadema, and exploring the
landscape of coastal villages-irrevocably shaped his creative
identity. This beautifully designed and produced publication
explores Homer's time in England and how it influenced his art, as
he attempted to reconcile his affinity for traditional subject
matter with his increasingly modern aesthetic vision. Coming Away
complicates our understanding of his work and convincingly argues
that it has more cosmopolitan underpinnings than previously
thought. Published in association with the Worcester Art Museum and
the Milwaukee Art Museum Exhibition Schedule: Worcester Art Museum
