Edward Hopper

(Stevedores Unloading Ship)
1900–1910

Black and white illustration depicting muscular dockworkers loading or unloading a ship. In the foreground, a prominent figure lifts a heavy crate, while others around him are engaged in similar labor-intensive activities. The background features the detailed masts and rigging of a ship, with the words "HOPE STORAGE ST." visible on a building to the left. The scene conveys a sense of industrial activity and physical exertion.
