Label TextThis drawing of an elevated train appears to be a study for one of Sloan's most famous city pictures, Six O'Clock, Winter, in the Phillips Collection. In the final painting the lively crowd below the elevated train—indicated here only by scribbles—becomes the artist's focus.Edward Burne-Jones
