Winslow Homer美国, 1836–1910Right and Left
关于这幅画
Right and Left is a 1909 oil on canvas painting by the American artist Winslow Homer. It depicts a pair of common goldeneye ducks at the moment they are hit by a hunter's shotgun blast as they attempt to take flight. Completed less than two years before his death, it was Homer's last great painting, and has been the subject of a variety of interpretations regarding its origin, composition and meaning. Like several of his later works, the painting revisits the sporting and hunting themes that had characterized Homer’s earlier career, marking his last exploration of that subject. Its design recalls that of Japanese art, and the composition resembles that of a colored engraving by John James Audubon.
