More about this artwork

On the canvas of Konštantín Bauer's "Do práce" (1924-1927), viewers witness a striking depiction of men setting out to work. This artwork draws attention to the theme of labor, portrayed through the intense and emotional representation of three male figures, which convey a sense of rugged endurance through their facial expressions and postures. The roughness in their attire and the tools they carry suggest the nature of their work is manual and physically demanding.The selection of colors, dominated by earthy tones, and the sketch-like, almost unfinished style impart a raw, unfiltered reality to the scene, emphasizing the hardships faced by working-class individuals during that era. Bauer's technique of using hasty, visible strokes adds a dynamism to the composition, echoing the relentless pace of the workers' daily lives.Incorporating a sense of immediacy and the palpable tension of early morning departures, "Do práce" is not only a representation of physical labor but also an evocative reminder of the personal and communal endeavors that characterized the livelihoods of many during the 1920s.
