EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Women Carrying Mortar" showcases the talent and skill of artist Henri Lehmann. The artwork, created using pen and brown ink wash over graphite, depicts a group of women engaged in laborious work. Their strong and determined expressions are beautifully captured by Lehmann's masterful strokes. The composition focuses on the women as they carry heavy loads of mortar, highlighting their resilience and dedication to their craft. Each figure is meticulously detailed, showcasing the artist's attention to anatomical accuracy. The use of brown ink wash adds depth and texture to the scene, enhancing the realism of the piece. Lehmann's study provides a glimpse into the lives of working-class women during his time. It serves as a tribute to their strength and perseverance in an era when gender roles were heavily defined. This particular print is housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts in Minnesota, USA. Measuring 5 7/8 x 9 inches (14.92 x 22.86 cm), it is mounted on a slightly larger sheet measuring 6 3/16 x 9 7/16 inches (15.72 x 23.97 cm). This exquisite artwork was generously gifted to the museum by Joseph F. McCrindle Collection. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, let us appreciate not only its artistic merit but also recognize these hardworking women who have played an integral role in shaping our society through their laborious efforts throughout history.
