Weary and Dissatisfied With Everything (The Galaxy, An Illustrated Magazine of Entertaining Reading, Vol. VIII) 1869

This wood engraving, "Weary and Dissatisfied With Everything," depicts a woman and man walking along a street at night. The woman is wearing a dress with elaborate embellishments, holding a hat in her hand. The man is in a dark suit, his face in shadow. The scene is dimly lit, with a full moon in the sky. The artwork was created by American artist Winslow Homer in 1869 and is a notable example of his early work. It was originally published in The Galaxy, a literary magazine, and captures a sense of social commentary and realism.
