"Juanita (also known as Little Half Breed)" is a 1917 oil painting by American artist Robert Henri (1865-1929). The work depicts a young Native American girl, Juanita, with a serious expression, and is known for its realism and the artist's use of strong colors. The painting's title, reflecting the societal prejudices of the time, has been criticized for its use of derogatory language. Henri's work often focused on everyday people and captured their individual personalities, reflecting the "Ashcan School" movement that emerged in the early 20th century.
