"A Stroll in the Park" (1915) by William James Glackens (1870-1938) depicts two elegantly dressed women walking through a verdant park, accompanied by a small dog. Glackens, known for his Impressionistic style, captures the scene with loose brushstrokes and vibrant colors, emphasizing the dappled light filtering through the trees. The painting evokes a sense of leisure and the beauty of a summer afternoon, a popular subject for American Impressionists.
