HARPER'S WEEKLY (single print), New York, Jan. 25, 1868  This authentic, stand-alone, full-page woodcut engraving features the Winslow Homer illustration, "Winter", which is a desirable ice-skating scene from an original January 25, 1868 issue of Harper's Weekly.

The significance of this print centers on Homer's celebrated series of seasonal and leisure pastimes depicting post-Civil War American life. "Winter" captures a fashionable young woman stepping onto a frozen pond, lace-up skates in hand, perfectly embodying the Victorian era's growing obsession with outdoor recreation and ice skating. As one of Homer's most graceful and popular genre scenes from his early Periodical work, this woodcut remains a highly desirable piece among collectors of 19th-century American art and winter-themed Americana.

Single full-page print, measuring approximately 10 1/2 by 16 inches, in overall very good condition. A great opportunity to own this desirable print at less than half price. To view the listing for a complete issue for this date, go to 173166.
