"Sponge Fishing, Nassau" is an oil painting by the prominent American artist Winslow Homer, created in 1885 during one of his visits to the Bahamas. This work is part of a series of tropical scenes that Homer painted after being captivated by the clear waters and vibrant culture of the Caribbean. Measuring 24 3/4 x 38 3/4 inches (62.9 x 98.4 cm), the painting is currently held in the collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C.

The painting depicts Bahamian sponge fishermen working in the shallow waters off the coast of Nassau. Homer's masterful use of light and color captures the transparency of the sea and the bright tropical sunlight. The composition is characterized by its horizontal expanse, which emphasizes the calmness of the sea, and the figures of the fishermen are skillfully integrated into the seascape, highlighting their harmonious relationship with the environment.

"Sponge Fishing, Nassau" is considered an important work in Homer's oeuvre, as it represents a shift in his artistic focus from the depiction of the harsh realities of life and nature, as seen in his earlier works, to a more serene and idyllic representation of the world. The painting is admired for its technical brilliance and its ability to convey the beauty and tranquility of the Caribbean seascape, making it a significant contribution to the canon of American art from the late 19th century.
