In the age of Charles Darwin and John Ruskin, nineteenth-century American artists sought to imitate the truths of nature. This title discusses Winslow Homer's ""Breezing Up"" (A Fair Wind), one of nine paintings by the artist in the Gallery's collection and several works by Thomas Eakins, including ""The Biglin Brothers Racing"".
