Tam Gan 1914

"Tam Gan" is a portrait of a young woman painted by Robert Henri in 1914. Known for his Ashcan School style, Henri captures the subject in a simple yet expressive way. The loose brushstrokes, especially visible in the background, give the work a sense of spontaneity and realism. The woman's direct gaze and traditional attire provide a glimpse into the culture and life of the time, making "Tam Gan" a compelling example of American portraiture.
