EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "The Great Strike by Carrol D. Wright, United States Commissioner of Labor," was published in the August 3, 1901 issue of Collier's Illustrated Weekly. The powerful image was created by renowned American artist, Edward Penfield, and published by Harper Publications in New York. The striking visual depicts a solitary, bare-chested man standing confidently, his muscular form exuding strength and determination. He holds an anvil in one hand and a hammer in the other, symbolizing the industrious spirit and resilience of the American workforce. The man's semi-dressed attire and the black and blue color palette add to the raw, gritty atmosphere of the scene. The concept of the illustration is rooted in the labor movement of the late 19th century, specifically the Great Strike of 1901, which took place primarily in Chicago, Illinois, United States of America. Carroll D. Wright, the United States Commissioner of Labor, is the subject of the image, emphasizing the importance of labor rights and employment issues during this period. The lithograph showcases Penfield's mastery of the lithotint technique, which allowed for a wide range of tonal values and subtle shading, resulting in a striking and evocative image. The text at the bottom of the print, with its bold, capitalized lettering, adds to the overall impact of the piece, making it a valuable addition to any collection of heritage art or Americana.
