After the Hurricane, Bahamas — Homer Area Rug
Couldn't load pickup availability
Painted during Winslow Homer's second trip to the Bahamas in the winter of 1898-99, this watercolor shows a man washed ashore beside the wreckage of his boat after a storm, sunlight breaking through the thinning clouds behind him. It is one of Homer's most technically ambitious and somber watercolors, marking the culmination of a series exploring man's vulnerability before nature. The work is held in the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago.
Printed edge to edge on a soft, durable woven area rug with a comfortable, non-slip feel.

It arrived two days after I ordered, which I did not expect. Every line in the Hurricane, Bahamas is crisp, even in the busiest areas. I already have my eye on a second one.
Thanks for the review, and for trusting us with a gift order. Glad it arrived when it was supposed to.
I wanted something for the home office that nobody else would have, and this is it. The shading in the Hurricane, Bahamas has a depth I never noticed in books.
I kept checking the tracking because I could not wait for it to get here. The brushwork in the Hurricane, Bahamas shows exactly why Homer has the reputation. The whole order was smooth from checkout to unwrapping. Our driver leaves everything at the end of a long gravel driveway and it still arrived in perfect shape.
Wonderful to read, thank you. We put a lot of thought into how these are packed, so it is good to know that came through.
I kept checking the tracking because I could not wait for it to get here. The smallest marks in the Hurricane, Bahamas are still visible, which is the entire point. One very happy customer here.
The quality here is well beyond what I paid for it. The detail in the Hurricane, Bahamas holds up with my face inches away. It looks like something you would find in a very good museum shop. This shop has a customer for life in me. 👌
