Blacksmith Shop

Amerikanische Malerei 1878–1884, vers 1880

The artwork depicts an interior of a blacksmith shop with three men engaged in their work. On the left, a man in a red shirt and brown apron is holding a long-handled tool, standing near an anvil. In the center, another man with a long beard, wearing a top hat and a tan apron, stands with his hands on his hips. On the right, a man in a striped shirt and apron is operating a large bellows connected to a brick forge with a fire burning inside. The background features wooden walls with various tools hanging, and large windows letting in light. The floor is scattered with tools and materials, and a wooden wheel leans against the wall on the right.
