(34.5 x 52.5 cm). Constantin Meunier made a specialty of depicting muscular industrial laborers in the late nineteenth century. He conceived of his subjects as integral members of society and infused them with a sense of grandeur and heroism. Produced during a time of unrest in the European labor community, his images were embraced by many writers and critics as revolutionary calls for reform. His work was understood differently in the United States in 1913-14, also a time of industrial strife, when his retrospective exhibition traveled across the country to great acclaim. Meuniers noble laborers were perceived as acquiescent, proud, and happy with their stations in life, as opposed to actual militant strikers. One American critic noted that his figures reveal “an invigorating joy in life, in labor,” offering “a lesson to the rebelling and dissatisfied.” European Art Bliżej Kultury Unknown, Dubois de Montpéreux, Frédéric (1798 1850), lithography of H.

Small Card Decorated with Landscape (recto) and Stylized Chrysanthemum (verso), ca. 1880. Watercolor, black ink, and metallic paint over graphite on very thin card stock, 3 1/16 x 4 5/16 in. (7.8 x 11 cm). Created for use as calling cards, place cards, or menu cards, these charming items indicate how the Japan craze” permeated all facets of artistic production. Grant La Farge’s familiarity with Japanese motifs (such as Mount Fuji, chrysanthemums, and bamboo shoots) undoubtedly came from his family. His father, the artist John La Farge, embraced Japanese aesthetics in his own art and also collected and published widely on Japanese art; Grant La Farge’s mother, Margaret, was the grandniece of Commodore Matthew Perry.
