| Purpose of use |
The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating a key mid-career period in Himmelfarb's work when he shifted from Ashcan-school-style realism to more expressionist and modernist works focused on crowds of people, often in recreational settings, and began to experiment with patterned, decorative surfaces and a fragmented, reordered sense of space. Because the article is about an artist and his work, the omission of the image would significantly limit a reader's understanding and ability to visualize this key phase leading to his mature work. Himmelfarb's work of this type and this painting in particular is discussed in the article and by art historians cited in the article, as a representative work of this phase. |
