"Winslow Homer in England"

Tony Harrison

Hornby Editions, 134 pages, $22

Winslow Homer has been called by art historians one of the greatest American painters of his time. The native New Englander's name is a household word. His paintings are highly recognizable. Think rustic fisherwomen carrying baskets and nets. Envision a distressed ship in stormy waters. Imagine rocky shores and desolate coastlines. His Bahamian series is light and airy.
