About the piece
Painted in 1885 during Winslow Homer's travels in the Caribbean, this watercolor captures the brilliant light and atmosphere of Santiago de Cuba. The composition centers on the intricate patterns of a wrought-iron balcony, sharply contrasted against the bold red and yellow stripes of the Spanish flag. Homer's confident brushwork and sophisticated use of primary colors showcase his mastery of the watercolor medium and his ability to capture transient light.
