Cori 1907

"Cori" is a 1907 oil painting by American artist Robert Henri, known for his Ashcan School paintings, depicting a young boy with rosy cheeks and a serious expression. The painting captures a moment of introspection and innocence, with a focus on the boy's features and the play of light on his skin. The loose brushstrokes and dark background emphasize the boy's presence and create a sense of intimacy, typical of Henri's realist style. Henri was a prominent figure in the early 20th century art scene and his works often depicted everyday scenes and people, challenging the traditional academic style of the time.
