La première exploration complète des gravures de Homer dans le contexte de ses peintures, et en tant qu’oeuvres pleinement abouties à part entière. L’artiste américain Winslow Homer (1836–1910) est célèbre pour ses représentations magistrales de la vie américaine, offrant des portraits sensibles de la complexité de la guerre de Sécession et de la période de Reconstruction, des aquarelles éblouissantes réalisées lors de voyages à travers l’Atlantique, les Adirondacks et les Caraïbes, ainsi que de monumentales marines depuis son atelier de Prouts Neck, dans le Maine. Son travail de jeunesse dans les années 1850 et 1860 comme illustrateur commercial pour des magazines tels que Harper’s Weekly et Ballou’s Pictorial est bien documenté ; moins connue est la série de gravures que Homer a réalisées plus tard dans sa carrière, entre 1884 et 1889, et qu’il comptait parmi ses plus grandes réalisations artistiques. Premier ouvrage à mettre au premier plan le rôle des gravures méconnues de Homer, ce livre captivera les lecteurs en réorientant l’importance de la pratique de la gravure de l’artiste au sein de son oeuvre prolifique et dans le contexte de l’art américain de la fin du dix-neuvième siècle.

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. The first comprehensive exploration of Homers etchings in the context of his paintings and as fully realized artworks in their own right American artist Winslow Homer (18361910) is renowned for his masterful depictions of American life that offer sensitive portrayals of the complexity of the U.S. Civil War and Reconstruction periods, dazzling watercolors from extensive travels across the Atlantic, Adirondacks, and Caribbean, as well as monumental marines from his studio home in Prouts Neck, Maine. His early work in the 1850s and 1860s as a commercial illustrator for magazines such as Harpers Weekly and Ballous Pictorial is well documented; less well known is the series of etchings Homer completed later in his career, between 1884 and 1889, which he counted among his finest artistic achievements, asserting that they were as good work . . . as I ever did. This book is the first to foreground the role of Homers understudied etchings within his growing stature as an artist and his evolving strategies in the rapidly evolving nineteenth-century pictorial landscape. Most of these prints revisit subjects of popular oil paintings and watercolors by the artist, including The Life Line (1884), Eight Bells (1886), and Mending the Nets (1882), and highlight his captivation with the medium through extravagant linework, lush details, and a dazzling variety of intaglio techniques. Featuring essays by respected scholars and curators, and illustrated with dozens of objects and comparative images that document progressive work across states, this book will enthrall Homer enthusiasts as it reorients the importance of the artists etching practice within his prolific oeuvre and against the backdrop of late nineteenth-century American art.
