Today, paintings by Robert Henri are held in major institutions including Art Institute of Chicago. Each work on Paintale unpacks the subject, the symbolism, the technique, and the long afterlife of the painting — why it was commissioned, what its earliest viewers were expected to see, and why it still rewards close looking today.
