Dads Coming
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Winslow Homer captures the raw power and emotional intensity of a devastating storm that struck Gloucester, Massachusetts in 1873. This hauntingly beautiful oil painting depicts a scene of despair and hope as fishermen battle against treacherous waves to return home safely. The artist, known for his ability to convey human emotions through his artwork, skillfully portrays the anguish and determination etched on the faces of these brave men. Homer's choice of subject matter was most likely inspired by the tragic events that unfolded during that fateful summer day. As nine boats were claimed by the merciless storm, 128 lives were lost at sea. "Dads Coming" serves as a poignant reminder of the dangers faced by those who make their living from fishing, highlighting both their courage and vulnerability. The composition is masterful; with dark swirling clouds dominating the sky while crashing waves threaten to engulf fragile vessels below. Amidst this chaos, one can discern a faint glimmer of hope - a distant figure emerging from within the tempestuous seascape. It is an image that speaks volumes about resilience and unwavering determination. Displayed proudly at National Gallery of Art, this print allows viewers to experience firsthand Homer's powerful brushstrokes and vivid color palette. "Dads Coming" stands as a testament to both artistic brilliance and historical significance – forever preserving the memory of those who perished in Gloucester's deadliest storm.
