Three
young boys and a fisherman weigh down the starboard side of a sailboat
as it tacks against the breeze. This painting evokes a sense of
childhood, fresh air and summers. It was made on the same year that
Mark Twain wrote Huckleberry Finn. Homer is considered the leading American representative of naturalism, the realistic depiction of the contemporary world.
Many say, a man is a boy many years ago;
Others say, a boy is a man many years later,
And somewhere between, he is a boy, and a man, too;
But I'd rather say, once a boy, a boy forever. ~
