Robert Henri (1865-1929).
Robert Henri (1865-1929) was an American painter and teacher; an organizer of the group known as "The Eight".
<blockquote>
In 1888, he traveled to Paris to study at the Académie Julian, under [[Adolphe William Bouguereau]], and came to admire greatly the work of [[Jean-François Millet]], and embraced Impressionism. [http://traveltoeat.com/modern-art-denver-art-museum-colorado/#sthash.Bit3H9R3.dpuf]
</blockquote>
He gradually began to reject the genteel traditions of academic painting and impressionism, and turned his attention to urban realist subjects executed in a bold, painterly style. [https://www.nga.gov/exhibitions/horo_henri.shtm]
