About this work

A line illustration in ochre and black shows a woman seated in a cluttered wooden room, cutting cloth with large scissors while scraps of fabric spill across the floor. A pale figure stands on a landing beside an open door, and a sewing basket rests on a small table beneath a window. The print is by Jean de Bosschère and dates to 1917, and it carries the caption "Try as she would, she was obliged to go on cutting."
