Maine Coast is an 1896 oil painting on canvas by American artist Winslow Homer. It is part of the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.[1]

The painting is a seaward view from the cliffs at Prouts Neck, Scarborough, Maine on a stormy day. A powerful wave is about to crash onto the black rocks below in a mass of white foam.
