Winter at Sea - Taking in Sail Off the Coast

Winslow Homer

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white image of men on a ship. The men are on the deck of a ship with their bodies positioned horizontally and their hands on a sail. The men are wearing dark clothing. The background shows a body of water with crashing waves and a dark sky. The ship's deck is wooden with ropes and poles. The men are on the right side of the image, leaning over the edge of the ship to adjust the sail. The mood of the image appears to be one of hard work and harsh weather conditions. The image is titled "Winter at Sea - Taking in Sail Off the Coast" and was drawn by Winslow Homer.
