EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant print captures William James Glackens' transformation as an artist, showcasing his shift from dark and gritty urban scenes to a palette filled with bright, hot colors. The influence of European modernists like Henri Matisse is evident in this piece titled "Race Track 1908-1909". Glackens, a Philadelphia native, was known for his early career works that depicted the harsh realities of city life. However, around 1908, he began experimenting with a new style inspired by the boldness and vibrancy of European art movements. The scene depicted in this painting is Brighton Beach Race Track in Brooklyn. Glackens skillfully captures the energy and excitement of horse racing through his use of vivid hues and dynamic brushstrokes. The spectators are immersed in a sea of color as they cheer on their favorite horses. Measuring at 26 1/8 x 32 1/4 inches (66.4 x 81.9 cm), this oil on canvas artwork showcases Glackens' mastery in capturing movement and atmosphere. It serves as a testament to his artistic evolution during this period. This print from the Liszt Collection allows us to appreciate Glackens' transition into brighter palettes while still maintaining his keen eye for detail and storytelling.
