The Morning Bell 1873

"The Morning Bell" is a wood engraving by Winslow Homer, created in 1873. The work depicts a group of people walking towards a building in the distance, presumably a church. It was originally published in *Harper's Weekly* and showcases Homer's characteristic attention to detail and ability to capture the essence of everyday life in a poignant and evocative way. The engraving's subject matter, its use of light and shadow, and its portrayal of the human figure are all indicative of Homer's artistic style, making this a significant work in his oeuvre.
