ROBERT HENRI

ACHILL ISLAND LASS, 1928

About the Artwork

Although childless himself, Robert Henri wrote, “If one has love of children as human beings, and realizes the greatness that is in them, no better subjects for painting can be found.” Henri specialized in portraiture. Children, such as this Irish girl, especially appealed to him as sitters. He felt that their innocence offered a remedy for the complexities of modern life. The seemingly spontaneous brushstrokes he used to describe this child, with her tousled hair and sketchily rendered clothing, convey an authenticity and vitality that are characteristic of his best portraits.
