Artist
Marius Steinlen
Marius Steinlen is an Impressionism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This Swiss artist painted the everyday in oils during the mid-1800s, often focusing on labor and water scenes. One of their works here is Drawing Water, an 1855 oil painting that shows figures at a well. Their work fits the straightforward realism of the time, grounding scenes in tangible details rather than grand gestures. See if the textures in Drawing Water pull you closer—notice how the wood of the well and the sheen of the water differ under the same light.
