After a four-year absence, Winslow Homer's "The New Novel" is finally back on view.
The painting, one of the most recognizable and important paintings in the combined collections of the Springfield Museums, will be on display as part of a new exhibit titled "American Master: Winslow Homer" in the Starr Gallery of the Michele and Donald D'Amour Museum of Fine Arts from Feb. 24 to Sept. 27.
The Homer exhibit runs concurrently with a display of etchings by James Abbott McNeill Whistler from the D'Amour Museum's extensive holdings of 19th century American art, giving visitors an opportunity to view works by two of America's most influential artists.
