Exhibition Label: "Printed Art and Social Radicalism," Jun-2002, Stephen Goddard Pissarro was interested in a variety of radical schools of thought, including anarchism and communism, and belonged to the Club de l’art social [Socially Aware Art Club]. This club has been characterized as a politically heterogeneous group, whose members had in common an anti-conservative point of view. Like the work by Constantin Meunier exhibited here, this print was published by the anarchist journal Les Temps nouveaux [New Times], in the form of a frontispiece for a literary supplement in 1901.
