This exhibition examines, for the first time, the artistic interrelationship of the painter Winslow Homer, his close friend the architect John Calvin Stevens, and the Portland Society of Art, the Portland Museum of Art’s predecessor. With architectural drawings and a range of paintings and watercolors by Winslow Homer and his Maine contemporaries, this installation of 50 works provides a deeper understanding of Portland’s art world at the turn of the last century.

Museum hours: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, Sunday: 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday: 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.
