The Biglin Brothers Turning the Stake

Thomas Eakins

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Biglin Brothers Turning the Stake by Thomas Eakins: The painting depicts two men rowing a boat on a body of water. The men are wearing blue head coverings, grey tank tops and black shorts. They hold wooden oars. A blue flag is on a pole in the boat. The water is calm and reflects the sky and trees. Other boats are in the background, with people on the shore. A steam boat with a paddlewheel is on the right. The sky is cloudy. Trees line the shore.
