Mother and Children is a 1916 by George Bellows, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a woman holding a baby while sitting on a bench. Behind them, a fence and a dark, textured background suggest a park or yard. The lines are rough and scratchy, giving it a sketchy, unfinished feel. The artist used quick, uneven strokes to create movement and mood. The title is written right on the image: *Mother and Children*. Check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see this work in person.
George Wesley Bellows (August 12 or August 19, 1882 – January 8, 1925) was an American realist painter, known for his bold depictions of urban life in New York City.
