EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Infantryman, 1915" is a powerful depiction of a French soldier during the First World War. Created by renowned artist Theophile Alexandre Steinlen, this artwork captures the essence of courage and resilience exhibited by men in uniform during one of history's most tumultuous periods. The infantryman stands tall with his legs apart, exuding strength and determination. Clad in his military uniform and overcoat, he represents the countless soldiers who fought bravely for their country amidst the chaos of war. Steinlen's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, as he masterfully portrays the folds of fabric on the soldier's coat. This lithograph showcases Steinlen's artistic prowess within the art nouveau movement prevalent during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His use of scraping on stone creates texture while maintaining a sense of depth throughout the piece. The contrast between light fawn tint and thick off-white wove paper adds an ethereal quality to this poignant portrayal. Displayed at The Art Institute Chicago, this print serves as a testament to both historical significance and artistic brilliance. It encapsulates not only an era but also pays homage to those who sacrificed their lives for their homeland. Steinlen's "Infantryman, 1915" remains an enduring symbol of valor that continues to resonate with viewers today.
