EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage postcard print by Rie Cramer titled "March: Wind" captures the essence of early 20th-century motherhood and parenthood. The image depicts a blond-haired mother, dressed in a coat and shawl, struggling against the strong wind as she walks down a cobblestone street with her young son. Her effort is evident as she leans forward, holding onto her son's hand tightly to ensure their safety. The artist skillfully portrays the harsh weather conditions of March through the swirling wind that tugs at their clothing and blows newspapers across the sidewalk. Despite this struggle, both mother and child press on determinedly. The text on the postcard adds an additional layer of meaning, perhaps reflecting upon the challenges faced by parents during this time. Cramer's artistic style shines through in this lithograph print, showcasing her talent for capturing human relationships within natural settings. The attention to detail is remarkable - from the feather plume adorning the woman's hat to the expressions on their faces as they look down at their path ahead. As part of Cramer's thematic series depicting each month of the year, "March: Wind" beautifully encapsulates not only a specific season but also emotions associated with parenthood and resilience. This artwork serves as a testament to Cramer's contribution to Dutch art during this period while offering viewers a glimpse into life in Western Europe nearly a century ago.
