About the piece
Painted in 1919 by Jerome Myers, this oil on canvas captures a characteristic scene of urban life in New York's Lower East Side. Part of the Ashcan School tradition, the work uses a moody, nocturnal palette to depict an empathetic moment of rest and social connection among city residents. The soft illumination from the streetlamp creates a warm, intimate atmosphere against the dark silhouette of the surrounding city buildings.
