"I Call Them My Children—To Myself, Susan" is a wood engraving by Winslow Homer, published in *The Galaxy* magazine in 1869. It depicts an elderly man and a young woman, possibly a father and daughter, standing in a garden amongst flowers. The image is a striking visual representation of familial bond and the passing of time. This print is a testament to Homer's ability to capture tender moments and his mastery of the wood engraving technique.
