About the piece

Created in 1880, this evocative work by Winslow Homer depicts two schooners at night off the coast of Gloucester, Massachusetts. The painting is defined by the luminous glow of the full moon and its brilliant reflection on the dark water, contrasted against the deep, atmospheric blues and grays of a coastal night sky.
