Fire Fiend - Sheet Music Cover

Winslow Homer

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a sepia-toned sheet music cover with a chaotic illustration. At the top, a winged creature, possibly an eagle or an angel, flies above a burning cityscape with buildings and a columned structure on the right. A large dragon-like fire fiend creature with wings and flames surrounds a family of four. The family consists of a man lying on the ground with a fireman's helmet beside him, a woman standing and holding a young girl, and a young boy. The woman holds a bucket. The background shows dark smoke and flames. The title "Fire Fiend" is written in large text at the top, with "Grand March" written below. The artist's name is at the bottom with an address in Boston.
