About the piece
Created in 1904, Winslow Homer’s 'Kissing the Moon' is a seminal work of American Realism. The composition places the viewer at water level alongside three fishermen, emphasizing the scale of the churning Atlantic waves as they appear to touch the glowing disc of the moon on the horizon.
