About the piece

In 'Mount Washington,' Winslow Homer masterfully depicts a group of nineteenth-century tourists traversing the rocky slopes of New Hampshire's highest peak. Painted in 1869, this work showcases Homer's early brilliance in capturing light and atmosphere, using a muted, earthy palette to evoke the misty, shifting weather of the American wilderness.
