Discussion on Edward Degas Ballet Bronze 













While we were viewing Impressionist and Post-Impressionist art, I noticed this seascape oil painting by Robert Henri.

Robert Henri was born Robert Henry Cozad in Cincinnati, Ohio . In 1873, the family moved west to Nebraska, where his father John J. Cozad founded the town of Cozad. It was in Cozad that I introduced my college students (on a study tour) to Robert Henri.

In 1886, Henri enrolled at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia, where he studied under Thomas Anshutz, a protege of Thomas Eakins.

By 1895, Henri had come to reconsider his earlier love of Impressionism, calling it a "new academicism." He was urging his friends and proteges to create a new, more realistic art that would speak directly to their own time and experience. The paintings by Henri, Sloan, Glackens, Luks, Shinn, and others of their acquaintance that were inspired by this outlook eventually came to be called the Ashcan School of American art. This later art form is what Henri is most associated with, rather than his impressionistic art. In my American Scene class, of the 20th century, I used illustrations of his realistic paintings of urban scenes.
