Description:
Essay about this group of early 20th century painters, who worked in "a style of realism that was later, imprecisely, designated 'The Ashcan School.'" Includes information about their genesis as "The Eight," their involvement in the Armory Show of 1913, and links to information about individual artists, such as Robert Henri, George Bellows, and Maurice Prendergast.
