EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Strikes in northern France" captures the essence of industrial unrest and worker's movements in the early 20th century. The vibrant colour litho brings to life the blurred motion and agitation that characterized these strikes. The image depicts a scene from November 2,1902, illustrating a dispute between workers and industry in Northern France. Soldiers stand guard as French strikers take action against their employers, showcasing the power of trade unionism during this period. The composition evokes a sense of tension and defiance as workers unite for their rights. Each figure represents a tradesman or laborer fighting for better working conditions and fair treatment. This photograph serves as an important historical document, shedding light on the struggles faced by European workers at that time. Located in a private collection, this print is part of Look and Learn's extensive archive of significant moments captured through art. It offers viewers a glimpse into an era marked by social upheaval and calls for change. Bridgeman Images presents this remarkable piece with respect to its historical significance while reminding us not to overlook the ongoing fight for workers' rights worldwide.
