William Glackens (1870 – 1938) studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and
later moved to New York City, where he co-founded what came to be called the Ashcan
School art movement. This group of artists, dubbed by the press "the Eight
Independent Painters" or The Eight, chose to exhibit their works
without pre-approval by the juries of the existing art establishment. He became
known for his dark-hued paintings of street scenes and daily life in the city's
neighbourhoods. His later work was brighter in tone, and showed the influence
of Renoir. During much of his career as a painter, Glackens also worked as an illustrator
for newspapers and magazines in Philadelphia and New York City.
