Robert Henri

Robert Henri was active across the final decades of the nineteenth century and the early twentieth century, with his documented artistic production spanning the years 1894 through 1917.

His cataloged output, as represented in major institutional holdings, consists primarily of paintings and portraiture, with 11 paintings, 3 drawings, and 1 print held across various collections. The collection data demonstrates a concentration on both urban landscape and figure studies. Notable canvases include the street scenes Snow in New York and Paris Street Scene, alongside the European view Concarneau Terrace / Brittany Street Scene. Henri’s engagement with figure studies is evidenced by documented portraits such as Young Woman in Black and Young Woman in White.

The ongoing significance of Robert Henri’s work is affirmed by its inclusion in prominent American collections, specifically the holdings of the Art Institute of Chicago and the National Gallery of Art. The preservation of these original Robert Henri paintings and drawings ensures their continued scholarly study. Today, many of these museum-quality works, or documentation thereof, are available as high-quality prints within the public domain.
