Was John Sloan a Realist?

Yes, John Sloan was a Realist. With Robert Henri, he organized an exhibition of a group of urban Realist painters, known as "The Eight" or the "Ashcan School," who challenged traditional notions of art. Some of the American painter's most famous works include McSorley's Bar; Sunday, Women Drying Their Hair; Sixth Avenue and Thirtieth Street, New York City and Dust Storm, Fifth Avenue.
