Perils of the Sea

Winslow Homer

Date: 1888

Credit Line: Terra Foundation for American Art, Daniel J. Terra Collection

Object number: 1995.38

Text Entries: Winslow Homer's two fisherwomen from the fishing village of Cullercoats stand steadfast and vigilant as they wait for news of their husbands' boats. The rescue house and the group of men looking out to sea serve as a foil for the female figures who, heroic in posture, suggest an air of quiet calm in the presence of possible calamity. The inhabitants of the English village would remain an important subject for Homer and his many depictions of fisherwomen, in everyday tasks such as knitting, often underscore the symbiotic relationships between the fisherwomen and their male counterparts, which relied on an observance of strictly gendered roles.
