Husking Party Finding the Red Ears is a 1857 by Winslow Homer, a Impressionism work, depicting Party, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a group of kids helping on a farm. They toss corn husks into the air while a woman in a red shawl watches. Homer painted this when he was just 21. It’s one of his earliest works, made before he became known for Civil War scenes. Look up Winslow Homer (American, 1836–1910) to see how he changed over time.
Winslow Homer (February 24, 1836 – September 29, 1910) was an American landscape painter and illustrator, best known for his marine subjects.
