EXHIBIT “Of Light & Air: Winslow Homer” at Museum of Fine Arts, Houston

EXHIBIT ON VIEW NOVEMBER 1, 2026–FEBRUARY 7, 2027: Presenting nearly 50 watercolors by Winslow Homer (1836–1910), alongside a selection of his oils, drawings, and prints. Of Light and Air: Winslow Homer from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston explores how the artist grew as a watercolorist. With material ranging from a childhood drawing to his final canvas, the exhibition follows the major chapters in his career and explores the various environments—ecological, artistic, social, and economic—that shaped his enduring work in watercolor. Homer’s watercolors capture the look and feel of a place, transporting the viewer to the rugged Maine coast, New York’s Adirondack Mountains, the English seashore, and the sunlit Caribbean.
