1858
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Our Land - Sheet Music Cover is a 1858 by Winslow Homer, a Impressionism work, depicting Sheet Music, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a simple farm scene with a man standing near a fence. He holds a pitchfork and wears work clothes. The background has rolling hills and a bright sky. Homer made this early in his career. He often painted rural life in America. You can see his skill in the way he shows light and shadow. It reminds me of Andrew Wyeth’s quiet, detailed work.
Winslow Homer (February 24, 1836 – September 29, 1910) was an American landscape painter and illustrator, best known for his marine subjects.
