Les Tisserands

Französische Grafik 1893–1895, 1893

This is a drawing of workers in an industrial setting. The image depicts several topless figures pushing carts filled with material, along a track beside a large mound. In the background, there are outlines of industrial buildings with smokestacks against an orange sky. The left side of the image contains a detailed listing resembling a playbill with names and roles, suggesting it may be related to a theatrical production titled "Les Tisserands." The scene is characterized by dark, heavily textured shading contrasting with highlights of color.
