About this artwork
Painted in 1862, this landscape by Albert Bierstadt takes spear fishing as its subject, as the title tells us. It is an oil painting on canvas, and it belongs to the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. Bierstadt is best known for large-scale landscapes of the American West, and this work sits within his landscape painting. The scene invites you to look at people and water together, with the setting around them given as much attention as the activity itself.
On your wall: Its landscape subject and water theme suit a living room, study or hallway, where a calm, natural scene can sit comfortably beside wood, leather or muted furnishings.
