Four Fishwives on the Beach

Winslow Homer, 1881

The artwork depicts four women walking on a beach. They are shown in full body, walking side by side. The woman on the left wears a long dress and a red headscarf, carrying a child on her back. The other three women are dressed in long skirts and blouses, with two of them carrying large baskets. One woman wears a blue hat, while the others have their hair covered or styled. The background features a sandy beach with reflections of the women in shallow water, and in the distance, there are several boats with sails and groups of people. The sky is light with clouds.
