Red Kimono on the Roof  1912

by John French Sloan

This unglorified glimpse of a woman hanging laundry was probably painted from Sloan's studio window. Sloan was part of a group of artists who became known as the Ashcan School. Ashcan School artists recorded the bustling activity of New York's lower East Side. [br] [url=http://collection.imamuseum.org/artwork/56249/]Indianapolis Museum of Art[/url] © Delaware Art Museum/...
