Portrait of Asburyh W. Lee 1905

"Portrait of Asburyh W. Lee" is a 1905 oil painting by American realist artist Thomas Eakins. Known for his detailed and lifelike depictions of people and their surroundings, Eakins captures Asburyh W. Lee in a seated pose, his hand resting on the arm of a chair. The muted palette of the portrait emphasizes the subject's presence and the naturalism of the light. Eakins's focus on anatomy and realistic portrayal of his subjects makes this a quintessential example of American realism in the early 20th century.
