Recreate the serene beauty of Gloucester Schooners and Sloop, also known as Gloucester Schooners and Waterboat, an 1880 painting by Winslow Homer, with this full-coverage cross-stitch pattern. Housed at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, this peaceful scene captures schooners and a sloop gently resting in a harbor with dock buildings and a distant city in the background. Unlike many of Homer’s more dynamic ocean scenes, this painting portrays a calm, quiet moment in the harbor with no waves or evidence of wind, allowing the boats to rest tranquilly.
Homer’s use of muted colors and his focus on light and atmosphere lend this scene a sense of stillness and quietude. The composition offers a harmonious balance of boats, buildings, and water, making it a timeless portrayal of American coastal life. This counted cross-stitch pattern faithfully recreates the subdued palette and the peaceful harbor setting, offering an enjoyable and meditative stitching experience for those who admire Homer’s refined depiction of maritime tranquility.
This pattern is available in regular and large print chart options, and includes detailed instructions and a floss conversion chart, ensuring a smooth and rewarding stitching process as you bring this serene harbor scene to life.
