The Sleighing Season - The Upset

Winslow Homer

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white drawing of a chaotic winter scene. A horse-drawn sleigh is on its side, with people tumbling out or still on it. Two horses are rearing up on their hind legs. A man holds the reins, while another man and woman are on the ground. A child lies on the ground, and another person is on the sleigh. A dog runs nearby. The background features trees, buildings, and a sign reading "Selimicholas". The image is titled "The Sleighing Season - The Upset" and appears to be from Harper's Weekly, dated January 14, 1860, by Winslow Homer.
