The Mouthful of Bread, Waiting in Line
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a poignant study for Charity painted by Fernand Pelez between 1892 and 1908. This oil on canvas print captures the harsh realities faced by the working class in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Measuring an impressive 179x70 cm, this masterpiece can be found at the Musee de la Ville de Paris, Musee du Petit-Palais in France. In this thought-provoking image, we witness a queue of impoverished workers patiently waiting their turn to receive a meager meal. The painting portrays the desperation and hunger that plagued many during this time period. Pelez's attention to detail brings forth a sense of realism as he depicts each individual with great care and empathy. The artist skillfully conveys the struggles faced by these laborers through his masterful use of light and shadow. Their tired expressions speak volumes about their daily hardships while highlighting societal issues such as poverty and starvation. "The Mouthful of Bread, Waiting in Line" serves as a powerful reminder of the disparities that existed within society during both the 19th and early 20th centuries. It prompts viewers to reflect upon our own responsibilities towards those less fortunate than us. Bridgeman Images has provided Fine Art Finder with this remarkable print capturing every nuance of Pelez's original work without compromising its integrity or emotional impact.
