介绍（中）	1857年，温斯洛·霍默开始了他18年的职业生涯，为同年在纽约创办的《哈珀周刊》担任插画师。该出版物是插图周刊最成功的例子之一，这是一种以图像而非文本为主的杂志。得益于木刻技术的最新进展，Weeklies可以快速、廉价、大量地印刷。在木刻技术中，图像被翻译到木块上，然后从蜡模中电解铸造。在职业生涯的早期，霍默是一名自由插画家，在美国内战爆发后（1861年至1865年），他被哈珀出版社聘为全职记者。他为本周创作的作品从前线观察到的战时场景，到唤起美国农业历史的怀旧景色这幅版画设计于1861年6月，当时正值南北战争的第一周，展示了一个夏天的下午，年轻女性聚集在室内为联邦士兵缝制制服。他们制作帽檐（军用帽子的布套，背面有长长的挡板，以保护颈部免受阳光照射），其中一名女裁缝就是一个完成的例子。男性的缺席让人想起了那些离开军队，留下妻子、姐妹和女儿的男人。墙上一名士兵的阴影肖像预示着即将到来的生命损失。
介绍（英）	In 1857 Winslow Homer began his eighteen-year career working as an illustrator for Harper’s Weekly, which launched in New York in the same year. The publication was one of the most successful examples of an illustrated weekly, a type of magazine dominated by images rather than text. Weeklies could be printed quickly, cheaply, and in large quantities thanks to recent advances in wood-engraving technology, in which an image was translated onto a wood block and then cast electrolytically from a wax mold. After working as a freelance illustrator during the early years of his career, Homer was hired by Harper’s as a full-time correspondent upon the outbreak of the American Civil War (1861–65). His work for the weekly ranges from wartime scenes observed from the front to nostalgic views evoking America’s agrarian past. Designed in June 1861 during the first weeks of the Civil War, this print shows young women gathered indoors on a summer afternoon to sew uniforms for Union soldiers. They make havelocks (cloth covers for military caps with long flaps at the back to protect the neck from the sun), and one of the seamstresses models a finished example. The lack of a male presence is a reminder of the men who have departed for the army and left wives, sisters, and daughters behind. The shadowed portrait of a soldier on the wall foreshadows the loss of life to come.
