Two Scouts

Winslow Homer, 1887

The image shows two men on horseback in military uniforms. They are sitting upright on their horses in an outdoor setting surrounded by trees under a cloudy sky. The man on the right has a mustache and wears a hat, while the other man also wears a hat. They are both dressed in gray jackets, knee-length boots, and the man on the right has a red scarf around his neck. They are both holding the reins of their horses. The ground is earthy with foliage.
