Painting
Like many American painters, including Winslow Homer, William Glackens was an artist-reporter early in his career. He met Robert Henri in Philadelphia, shared a studio with him, and went to Paris with him in 1895. Upon Glackens's return, he moved to New York City. He exhibited with The Eight in 1908, and chaired the Armory Show in 1913. By 1914, he was devoting all of his time to painting, and espoused subjects like this one, colorful depictions of Americans at play. Many of his paintings reflect the influence of French impressionists, particularly Pierre Auguste Renoir.
