메리 애그니스 by Robert Henri

Robert Henri, a leader of the Ashcan School, traveled to Ireland and became fascinated by the local children, painting them with a vitality that broke away from traditional portraiture. This portrait of Mary Agnes captures that spirit perfectly—her direct gaze and the bright blue ribbon in her hair make her look ready to jump out of the frame. Henri's loose, energetic brushstrokes give the painting a sense of immediacy, as if he caught her in a fleeting moment of quiet confidence.
