Label TextJohn Sloan's younger sister, Marianna, painted this view from the roof of his apartment building in Chelsea. Unlike her brother, who focused on individuals at street level in pictures of his neighborhood, Marianna gives us an overview of the city street with its street cars, elevated trains, and throngs of pedestrians all in motion.
