About the piece

Painted by John Sloan in 1914, this work captures a convivial dinner at Petitpas’, a boardinghouse and restaurant that served as a hub for New York’s intellectual and artistic circles. The central figure on the left is John Butler Yeats, the father of poet W.B. Yeats, surrounded by a group of friends in a scene defined by expressive brushwork and a glowing, nocturnal palette characteristic of the Ashcan School.
