"Renganeschi's Saturday Night," John French Sloan, 1912.
Sloan (1871-1951) was a founder of the Ashcan School, an art movement centered on scenes of daily life in New York, generally among the working and poorer classes. This painting is actually a bit of a social statement, although it may not seem like it to 21st century eyes. Here we have three women sitting at a table together, unescorted, enjoying an evening out at a restaurant. (Renganeschi's was a popular Italian place at the time.) The waiter is about to serve them and nobody seems to think they're unusual. But they were, in a way...at the time, women were just starting to be accepted as solo or group customers at restaurants. Before, it was necessary for them to have escorts. Also, there are the working class (note the legs curled around the chair, and the general air of raucous geniality). They have worked hard for this evening out, and have every right to enjoy it.
Sloan was a Socialist and pacifist who supported many progressive causes, and this informed his work, although he tried to keep his art and politics separate. Also a noted teacher, Sloan was a champion of muralist Diego Rivera and of Native American artists.
