Winslow Homer created a series of vibrant watercolor landscapes on his first visit to the Bermuda in December 1899. He left some six weeks later in early 1900 taking roughly ten watercolors back with him. 

He returned to Bermuda in 1901 and continued his study and fascination with Bermuda’s rock formations. He found the faults, the striations, the texture, and the coloring most suitable to his palette and moods. 

His body of Bermuda-inspired work was featured at the Buffalo Exposition of 1901 where they were awarded a Gold Medal.
