Other works depict an orange-shirted lady amidst lush foliage in Young Woman Bathing Her Feet in a Brook and a similarly tranquil scene in his The Garden of Les Mathurins at Pontoise. His pen sketches entitled Les Turpitudes Sociales prominently feature the word "Anarchie," fitting since this artist was a member of the Social Art Club, devoted to the aims of radicals like Jean Grave. Perhaps best known for his series of paintings of Kew Gardens in London, he switched styles numerous times. For ten points, identify this man of Spanish/Jewish extraction, who was born on the island of St. Thomas, and was the only artist to exhibit in all eight Impressionist exhibitions.
