Michael Rothenstein made this lithograph in 1945. It shows everyday life in Essex, where he lived. The print shows people working with timber. This was Rothenstein’s very first print. It came from a big project to bring art into schools after the war. Kids could pin it right on their classroom walls. Look up Rothenstein’s later prints to see how his style grew. door: artist: Rothenstein, Michael
