Purpose of use

The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating a key early period in Himmelfarb's career when he painted works focused on informal, humble settings and people in a style art historians have called "dark-toned urban realism" and compared to the American Ashcan School painters. 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 developmental phase in his 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.
