1861
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Colonel Wilson, of Wilson's Brigade is a 1861 by Winslow Homer, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This is a black-and-white drawing of a man in a long coat and hat. He has a thick mustache and holds a folded paper or cloth in one hand. The background is plain, focusing all attention on him. The artist used simple lines and shading to show his face and clothes. This style keeps things clear and direct, without extra details. Look up Realism next to see more art like this.
Winslow Homer (February 24, 1836 – September 29, 1910) was an American landscape painter and illustrator, best known for his marine subjects.
