1894
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Le Déménagement is a 1894 by Jean-François Raffaëlli, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a busy street scene where people are moving furniture. A woman in a long coat walks beside a cart piled with chairs and a mattress. A man in a cap pushes the cart, while others carry boxes or stand around. Buildings line the street, with smoke rising from a chimney in the background. The artist focused on everyday life, not fancy scenes. The quick, loose lines give it a rough, real feel—like a snapshot of a moment. Next, check out Jean-François Raffaëlli.
Jean-François Raffaëlli (April 20, 1850 – February 11, 1924) was a French realist painter, sculptor, and printmaker who exhibited with the Impressionists. He was also active as an actor and writer.
