Two Scouts

Winslow Homer

National Gallery of Art

The image shows two men on horseback in military uniforms. They are sitting upright on their horses in an outdoor setting surrounded by trees under a cloudy sky. The man on the right has a mustache and wears a hat, while the other man also wears a hat. They are both dressed in gray jackets, knee-length boots, and the man on the right has a red scarf around his neck. They are both holding the reins of their horses. The ground is earthy with foliage.
