1858
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
The Dance after the Husking is a 1858 by Winslow Homer, a Impressionism work, depicting Dancing, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a lively room where people are dancing and talking. In the center, a couple spins while others watch or chat nearby. Some sit on the floor, and a few stand by the walls. The room has shelves with books and odd objects, like a birdcage and a clock. A fireplace sits in the background, and a man in the corner reads a paper. The title *The Dance after the Husking* hints this scene might be about farmworkers celebrating after harvest. The drawing feels busy but warm, with quick lines that capture movement. Next, look up Winslow Homer to see how his style changed over time.
Winslow Homer (February 24, 1836 – September 29, 1910) was an American landscape painter and illustrator, best known for his marine subjects.
