この絵画について
The Brierwood Pipe is an oil painting of 1864 by the American artist Winslow Homer. It depicts two men from the 5th New York Volunteer Infantry (Duryee Zouaves).
The title may refer to a popular poem of the day about the 5th New York Zouaves, titled "The Brier-Wood Pipe". "Two of the most famous Zouave outfits in the Army of the Potomac were from New York, Duryees and Hawkins's."
It is also known as Making Brier-root Pipes, Making Brierwood Pipes, and other similar variants.
As of 2012, the painting is on display at the Smithsonian American Art Museum, from the collection of the Cleveland Museum of Art.
美術館の言葉で
Created during the United States Civil War, Winslow Homer’s painting depicts two volunteers for the Union Army who sport their regiment’s highly colorful uniforms, a design discovered to be impractical due to its ability to be spotted by sharpshooters. Passing idle time in their encampment, one soldier holds a lit pipe and watches his companion whittle a block of wood. The painting shares its title with a contemporary poem, in which a soldier smokes a brierwood pipe and daydreams of the time when the conflict will end so he can return home. The museum acquired this painting during World War II, and it seems likely that the painting’s subject was viewed as especially significant for its wartime audience.
