From the Minneapolis Institute of Art record
This women’s animated but unnatural pose may stem from George Bellows’s interest in Dynamic Symmetry, a means of constructing compositions using mathematical rules. After making a serious study of the rules, Bellows told Robert Henri that he found them more valuable than the study of anatomy. United States, Americas
