Description
Luks is best remembered as a member of the Ashcan School of social realists, but in the 1920s he produced a striking group of watercolors whose rich coloring recalls the work of European artists such as Henri Matisse (1869-1954) and André Derain (1880-1954).- “Annual Report for 1972.” The Bulletin of the Cleveland Museum of Art 60, no. 6 (June 1973): 171–205.
