His dramatic life story demonstrates the courage, strength, and creativity of his generation of workmen. Kane’s dedication to painting resulted in a fascinating body of work that has ended up in some of America’s most important museums and private collections. The allure of the Kane saga was heightened all the more by the fact that he did not achieve renown until he was at the age at which most people are retiring from their professions. This Kane paradox-brawny and tough, sensitive and creative-was at the heart of much of the public’s interest in Kane as a person. A rough-and-tumble blue-collar man prone to brawling and drinking, Kane also sought out beauty in the industrial world he inhabited. With a full account of Kane’s life as a working man, including his time as a steelworker, coal miner, street paver, and commercial painter in and around Pittsburgh in the early twentieth century, the authors explore how these occupations shaped his development as an artist and his breakthrough success in the modern art world. American Workman presents a comprehensive, novel reassessment of the life and work of one of America’s most influential self-taught artists, John Kane.

This additional fund proceeded, as Paul Elmer More has pointed out, from the keen spiritual and theological interests of the first colonists, plus the strange and forbidding nature of the scene into which they were plunged. Charles Brockden Brown had achieved phenomenal fame with his Radcliffian romances, and Washington Irving’s lighter treatment of eerie themes had quickly become classic. America, besides inheriting the usual dark folklore of Europe, had an additional fund of weird associations to draw upon so that spectral legends had already been recognised as fruitful subject-matter for literature. The public for whom Poe wrote, though grossly unappreciative of his art, was by no means unaccustomed to the horrors with which he dealt.
