Homer, The Fog Warning (Halibut Fishing)
(piano playing) Man: The dory is riding up the great swell and the fisherman is taking that moment to make sure that he can see the ship he's got to reach.발음듣기
Girl: We're looking at Winslow Homer's The Fog Warning from 1885 and that row boat is tipped all the way forward.발음듣기
He's looking back to the ship that he needs to get back to and as he looks in that direction he sees the fog rolling in.발음듣기
Man: This is a painting where we see the protagonist this fisherman assessing his situation and we assess it along with him.발음듣기
We can't exactly read their emotion, but wonderfully that leaves it open for us to think about what he's thinking about.발음듣기
This is still an important fishing ground but it is very far out to sea and if he doesn't make it back to that ship he's lost.발음듣기
It really is about the ruthlessness of nature and we feel that not only in the strength of the sea but of course in the dark cast of the sky.발음듣기
What is most powerful is not only the surge of the surf but also the isolation of this figure, it's a big cold ocean.발음듣기
The ship that we see on the horizon is far away and we have a sense of the extraordinary physical strength it's going to take on the fisherman's part to get back there.발음듣기
Man: He needs to take these opportunities at the crest of each of those swells to be able to navigate his way back to that ship.발음듣기
Here he's assessing not only direction, but he's also assessing the time that it will take and the darkness that's going to fall.발음듣기
Like in The Lifeline, Homer is using a variety of brush strokes to give us a sense of the water and the spray of the see with broad whitish blue strokes of paint in the foreground that we can see through to the dark water underneath.발음듣기
Man: That's the foam. You can see, it's such an effective representation of the foam that's left over in the wake of the dory.발음듣기
If this was a painting that was made on land as just an expression of a beautiful aesthetic experience.발음듣기
It's so interesting the way that Homer has transformed the way we would normally look at a sunset.발음듣기
If we think about the way that water is represented in luminous painting for example where it's a beautiful glassy sheen that gives a sense of reflection and contemplativeness.발음듣기
This is a painting where the structure of space is absolutely fluid, as fluid as the water is.발음듣기
Girl: If we think back to the history of American landscape painting where human beings are not so much actors within that space confronting the challenges of nature.발음듣기
Nature's grandiose and sublime for example in the paintings of Albert Bierstadt of Frederick Church.발음듣기
