Description: Yale University Press. Gekartonneerd met stofomslag. Pp: 288. The American realist artist John Sloan (1871-1951) is best known for his portrayals of daily life in early 20th-century New York and as a member of The Eight and the Ashcan School, alongside peers like Robert Henri, Everett Shinn, and George Luks. nnSloan’s artistic approach was shaped by his experience as a commercial illustrator, a type of work that inaugurated his professional careerat newspapers like the Philadelphia Press and later for mass-market magazines and which he pursued even after he turned his focus to painting.
