GMG received an email from Juni VanDyke, Art Program Director at the Rose Baker Senior Center which stated:
IN HONOR OF THE WINSLOW HOMER SHOW AT THE CAPE ANN MUSEUM…I HAVE MOUNTED IN THE EMPTY STORE WINDOW ON PLEASANT STREET (near the Cape Ann Museum) TWO VERY IMPRESSIVE “WINSLOW HOMER RECREATIONS” BY OUR SENIOR CITIZENS AT
THE ROSE BAKER SENIOR CENTER.
THE SENORS RECREATED IN PASTEL:
THE UNDERTOW (painted by Homer in 1886) and
THE HERRING NET (painted by Homer in 1883 ).
The email further suggested we might like to obtain pictures of these recreations to share with our readers. Please forgive the poor image quality as it proved difficult to get a nice clear shot of these large recreations through those storefronts even on a cloudy morning. The work is quite interesting and includes some additional helpful information. Thanks to Juni and the senior artists:
Good Morning Gloucester
