1859
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
The Grand Review at Camp Massachusetts, near Concord, September 9, 1859 is a 1859 by Winslow Homer, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a big outdoor event with rows of soldiers marching in formation. In the foreground, men in suits and hats watch as officers on horseback ride past. Farther back, more troops line up across a wide field, with tents and hills in the distance. The title tells us this is a military parade near Concord in 1859. Notice how the artist used simple lines to show movement and crowds—no fancy details, just clear action. Next, look up Realism to see how artists captured everyday life this way.
Winslow Homer (February 24, 1836 – September 29, 1910) was an American landscape painter and illustrator, best known for his marine subjects.
