Fly Fishing

Winslow Homer

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a black and white drawing titled "Fly Fishing" by Winslow Homer. The scene shows a man in a small wooden boat on a body of water, likely a lake or river. The man is wearing a long-sleeved shirt and a cap. He sits in a small wooden boat with an oar resting across the back, and holds a fishing pole in his left hand and a net in his right. The boat and man are reflected on the calm water's surface. The background is a mottled grayish-brown color, suggesting a landscape or trees. The drawing on a beige background paper has darker shading around the boat and man. The image's overall appearance suggests a vintage or antique piece.
