Eakins subjects consist mainly of every day life in Philadelphia, often domestic scenes of family and friends. He also produced sporting works depicting the human body in motion while swimming, sailing, and wrestling. He was fascinated by the play of light on water and created a series of rowing scenes done at different hours of the day. As a photographer and sculptor, Eakins made use of his photography to study the human form and as an aid to his art.

Eakins taught at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts from 1876 but due to his use of nude male model in a mixed classroom was forced to resign in 1886. His ideas regarding the study of anatomy and dissection was considered scandalous at the time but revolutionized the teaching of art in America. Late in his career Eakins turned mainly to portraiture where he He sought to depict reality with absolute honesty. Thomas Eakins died in Philadelphia on June 25, 1916.

Museums: Thomas Eakins may be found at the Currier Gallery of Art, New Hampshire and the Mead Art Museum at Amherst College, Massachusetts and the The Eakins Gallery at Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia.
