My Egypt, Oil on composition board 35 3/4 x 30 in. (90,8 x 76,2 cm) Whitney Museum of American Art, New York

Charles Demuth (1883—1935) wasn't just a product of America's transformative early-20th century; he was one of its archetypes. Demuth was a principal member of the Precisionism, the first indigenous modern art movement in the United States. Challenging the boundaries of race, class, sexuality, and artistic tradition, he digested the shifting social landscape around him and left behind a memorable body of work that defies categorization.
