Description

Paintings of the Sea: A 2,000-Year Voyage invites its reader on an epic journey through time and space, from crowded harbors and well-traveled trade routes to wild shores where the miraculous and the monstrous await. Since the poet Homer first sang of Odysseus's perilous journey, to cross the sea has meant to travel into the unknown, step ashore on islands of sensual delight, and to confront unimaginable terror. Through masterpieces of marine painting, including works by J. M. W. Turner, Winslow Homer, Monet, Matisse, Picasso, and many others, we see how artists have long used the ocean to explore the extremes of human endurance and the limits of the imagination. This volume also draws on the great literature of the sea, from Shakespeare and Coleridge to Melville and Poe. Paintings of the Sea offers a glorious and intriguing look at what lies beyond the horizon.
