In the first decades of the 20th century, painters of the Ashcan School, a loosely connected group of gritty, urban realists, created images of New York City from street level. Following older artist Robert Henri's insistence that artists should make 'pictures from life', the Ashcanners renounced the polished academic style taught in art schools of the time. Instead they practised a more urgent manner, seeking to catch the ebb & flow of life in urban America. Some of them also produced vivid landscapes with a highly saturated colour palette & portraits. An American Experiment: George Bellows & the Ashcan Painters introduces the painters of the Ashcan School & the key characteristics & themes of their work. Detailed commentaries are provided for twelve significant paintings by George Bellows, William Glackens, Robert Henri, George Luks, & John Sloan. In their visual contemplation of early-20th-century New York, these artists offer deep insights into the nature of urban life not only in their time but also in our own.

The fountain in the foreground is surmounted by a statue of Hercules fighting Hydra. Two of the other statues may represent Mercury & Minerva. The elegantly dressed figures are by another painter, perhaps Jan Olis (about 1610
- 1676) or Anthonie Palamedesz. (1601
- 1673). This type of finely executed painting, representing a fanciful architectural setting, carefully constructed according to perspectival rules & populated with very elegantly dressed people, was probably painted for aristocratic & courtly patrons connected with the Court of Orange in the Netherlands. Van Delen painted imaginary architecture, particularly church interiors & palaces, in a style influenced by that of Hendrick van Steenwyck the Younger (died 1649).
