"Shadows in the Sunshine: Winslow Homer's Nervous Nostalgia in the 1870s"
Dr. Burns will focus on Homer's imagery of childhood in the 1870s, in particular the Gloucester watercolors of 1873 and 1880. Homer produced these works during a time of intense popular nostalgia for lost youth, both personal and, in aftermath of the Civil War, national. Along with nostalgic sentiment, images of children in the 1870s proffered the vision of a bright new generation that would smooth away the scars of war. But for Homer, who had witnessed and documented that war, forebodings tempered such hope, and shadows haunted both past and present. Burns will discuss Homer's seemingly carefree scenes as expressions of the artist's own acute awareness of time's passage and as modern variants on the romantic metaphor of the "Voyage of Life."
