Campaign Sketches: Foraging

Winslow Homer

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a black and white illustration of three men in military uniforms pulling a spotted cow by a rope through a grassy field. The men are wearing dark jackets and light-colored pants with tall boots. Two men are holding the rope, one on each side of the cow's head, while the third man trails behind. In the background, there are several people on horseback, a building with a sloping roof, and a haystack. A man on horseback is leading another horse with a large bundle of hay on its back. The sky is cloudy. At the top of the image, the words "CAMPAIGN SKETCHES" are written. Below the image, the word "FORAGING" is written, with smaller text underneath. The illustration is framed by a thin border. The overall scene appears to be a rural setting during a military campaign.
