About the piece

Created in 1909, 'Right and Left' is considered one of Winslow Homer's final and most powerful works. The painting depicts two goldeneye ducks at the moment of a hunter's shot, set against a brooding, atmospheric seascape that showcases Homer's unparalleled ability to capture the raw energy of the natural world.
