About the piece
Created in 1880, this watercolor by Winslow Homer showcases his profound mastery of marine subjects. The composition features a two-masted schooner set against a high-contrast sky of deep indigo and fiery red, with the colors reflected in the shimmering, dark surface of the sea. The work captures a transient, moody moment with the bold confidence characteristic of Homer's mature style.
