"Homestead" (2019) by Bo Bartlett (b. 1955) depicts a family standing on a rocky outcropping, looking towards a white farmhouse with a blue roof, reminiscent of American rural life and values. The man, holding an axe, represents strength and resourcefulness, while his wife, standing beside him, embodies domesticity. The scene is bathed in a warm, nostalgic light, evoking a sense of peace and stability. Bartlett's work is known for its realistic style and focus on everyday moments, capturing the essence of American life.
