Winslow Homer may be known for his dramatic narrative paintings, but this is a work of feeling and sensation—of the cold and of something unseen: the powerful wind. The brushstrokes in brown and grey practically blow across the canvas. Even Homer’s signature on the bottom left appears blown aloft. The lack of defined narrative in this painting and The Fall of the Cowboy counter common perceptions that Homer and Frederic Remington were preoccupied with action. In his restraint, Homer has created a painting about weather, place, and the feeling of being alone on the storm-tossed coast.
As entryway wall decor, the piece pairs naturally with other elegant wall art and with warm neutrals, timber, and soft natural light.
Each canvas is painted entirely by hand with professional oil paints on artist-grade cotton canvas. No printing, giclée, or digital imaging is used at any stage, so the surface keeps the slight relief and color variation of real brushwork.
This fine art oil painting wall decor is equally at home in a residence, a boutique hotel, or a professional office. Its elegant character makes it a safe, distinctive gift for anyone furnishing an entryway.
In short: The West Wind - Winslow Homer - Oil Painting combines an elegant composition, a 100% hand painted oil painting process, and the flexibility of made-to-order canvas sizes — a dependable choice for fine art oil painting and entryway wall decor.
