Camp Meeting Sketches: The Tent is a 1858 by Winslow Homer, a Impressionism work, depicting Tent, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
A group of people huddles under a striped tent in a grassy field. Two men in dark coats stand apart, talking. A woman in a light dress holds a child’s hand. Homer made this while traveling America. He sketched camp meetings—religious gatherings—then turned them into prints. It shows everyday life with quiet care. For more like this, look up Winslow Homer (American, 1836–1910).
Winslow Homer (February 24, 1836 – September 29, 1910) was an American landscape painter and illustrator, best known for his marine subjects.
