Original information about the work of art by The Metropolitan Museum of Art (© Copyright - by The Metropolitan Museum of Art - The Metropolitan Museum of Art)

Homer often enjoyed fishing trips in the wilderness of Quebec with his brother Charles. He based this unfinished painting on watercolors created during their last visit to Canada in 1902. Family tradition suggests that it records a perilous canoe journey down the Saguenay River and that Charles is the frightened passenger holding on to the gunwales. Homer only sketchily blocked in details such as the paddles, the foam above a concealed rock in the riverbed, and the guide’s facial features, marking his intended revisions in chalk. The artist’s family believed that he considered the painting complete in its essentials, and donated it to the Museum after his death.

In 1905 the male American artist Winslow Homer created this 20th century work of art Shooting the Rapids, Saguenay River.
