The Gulf Stream painting is part of a series. There are at least 3 paintings and this would be in the middle.

Conflict- I think every problem comes from selfishness. Everything is due to self-centered thinking and behavior.

So interesting

[@AleadaA]

Sometimes a beautiful but violent painting is just a depiction of a man at sea in a bad situation. Not all that other social political stuff you attach to this painting. it is about a laborer facing the perils many men at sea face. Art critics and historian read way too much into a work of art, perhaps this is to give them something more to talk about. Winslow Homer was a man of his times when the rugged individual was elevated, a time for respect of the man who labors against all odds to make a living. This is the honorable painting of a man doing his job to feed himself and probably his family, just like so many other men.

Interesting I tend to agree.

Extremely mediocre analysis which sheds no light on the images. And these people are in charge of a Homer show at the world's greatest museums?

You're not kidding... that was disappointing. Stopped the vid 6 minutes in.

[@BillLongnecker]

Ya, i made it almost 5 minutes and stopped, are they praising the painting and the painters vision, no! They are glorifying their woke sensitivity to what they want you to see and feel. Their analysis has nothing to do with the real image, an image conveying hopelessness and solitude in the great storm and chaos that is life. They see slavery and colonialism? Wow! 🤯

I agree. I did watch the whole video, but the ones who checked out early didn't miss much. It's a shame. I grew up in North Jersey and used to skip school sometimes and catch a bus into the city for the day. The Met was one of my favorite places to go when I ought to have been in school. I remember staring at The Gulf Stream and being completely transfixed by it. Unfortunately, I think I got more out of my teenage contemplations than this analysis.
