Summary

Description
English: Early in his career, in the 1870s, Homer was widely admired for depictions of the Civil War and for idyllic scenes of rural America. The tenor of his work changed decisively, however, during a two-year stay (1881-83) in the English village of Tynemouth on the coast of the North Sea. In both watercolor and oil Homer now focused on the fisherfolk who braved the dangerous sea to earn their spare livelihood. The subject of a robust fisherwoman facing the elements with her baby strapped to her back fits squarely within this theme of man's struggle against natural forces.

Licensing

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.
