"Boy with Blue Cap" is an oil painting by American artist George Luks, known for his Ashcan School style. Luks focused on capturing the lives of everyday people, especially the working class, and "Boy with Blue Cap" exemplifies this. The painting features a young boy in a blue cap, his face slightly tilted, with expressive eyes, set against a dark background. Luks's use of bold brushstrokes and contrasting colors contributes to the painting's dynamic composition, typical of the Ashcan School movement.
