Coasting Out of Doors is a 1857 by Winslow Homer, a Impressionism work, depicting Ice Skating, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
A man in a dark coat walks down a country lane. His boots kick up dust. A big tree leans over him, its branches twisted. Homer painted this long before he became famous for stormy sea scenes. He started out doing quiet scenes like this. The way he uses light makes the man stand out. This feels like an early sketch for his later work. Check out Winslow Homer (American, 1836–1910) next.
Winslow Homer (February 24, 1836 – September 29, 1910) was an American landscape painter and illustrator, best known for his marine subjects.
