Snap the Whip, 1867

Winslow Homer

Oil on canvas · 34 1/4 x 45 1/4 in. (87 x 114.9 cm)

Barefoot schoolboys crack a human whip-line across a sunlit yard.

Barefoot boys tear across a sunlit meadow playing crack-the-whip outside a one-room schoolhouse. Homer's warm, nostalgic image of rural American childhood after the Civil War brims with movement, freedom and open-air light.
