Winslow Homer (February 24, 1836 – September 29, 1910)


Two Guides, c. 1875

Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute
Williamstown, Massachusetts

"Two well-known Adirondack guides, the strapping Monroe Holt (1845-1921) in his trademark red shirt and the seasoned veteran mountaineer Orson "Old Man" Phelps (1816-1905), stand ready to venture forth into the wilderness, axes in hand. Homer spent the fall of 1874 in upstate New York, not far from this Beaver Mountain setting, and apparently completed the painting that winter."
