1859
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
The Wonderful Dutton Children is a 1859 by Winslow Homer, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows three girls dressed in fancy 1800s clothes. The tallest girl sits in a chair, holding a fan, while the two smaller girls stand beside her. Their dresses have ruffles and lace, and the background has a small table with a vase and books. The caption calls them "the smallest children of their age in the world," which makes them stand out. Their clothes look stiff and old-fashioned compared to how kids dress today. If you like this style of drawing, check out Realism next—it focuses on everyday life and accurate details.
