{"product_id":"the-breadwinner-heinrich-hoerle","title":"The Breadwinner - Heinrich Hoerle","description":"\u003cp\u003eA stark, linear lithograph by Heinrich Hoerle depicting a weary figure, reflecting the social and physical realities of Weimar-era Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeinrich Hoerle was a central figure in the Cologne group of the New Objectivity movement, a style that emerged in Germany during the Weimar Republic. This work, The Breadwinner, captures the stark reality of the post-war period through a minimalist, linear approach. The figure is depicted with a mechanical, almost robotic quality, reflecting the dehumanising effects of industrialisation and the physical trauma experienced by many veterans of the First World War.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHoerle employs a precise, calligraphic line to define the subject. The figure sits in a rigid posture, with prosthetic-like limbs that suggest a loss of bodily integrity. The face is rendered with wide, hollow eyes and a weary expression, conveying a sense of resignation. By stripping away background detail, Hoerle focuses the viewer entirely on the physical and psychological state of the individual. The composition is balanced but unsettling, using the stark contrast between the black ink and the paper to create a sense of isolation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis print is characteristic of Hoerle's interest in the intersection of human anatomy and machine-like forms. His work often explored the social conditions of the working class and the disabled in a society struggling to recover from conflict. The simplicity of the drawing does not diminish its impact, as the economy of line serves to amplify the subject's vulnerability. It is a direct observation of the human condition, devoid of sentimentality or decorative flourish. The work remains a clear example of the artist's ability to communicate complex social critiques through a refined, graphic language. It invites a quiet, contemplative engagement with the historical context of 1930s Germany, where the struggle for survival was a daily reality for many.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/envelop-voor-kalender-1902-theo-van-hoytema\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eEnvelop voor kalender 1902 - Theo van Hoytema — Theo van Hoytema\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/elfde-slede-eleventh-sleigh-abraham-delfos\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eElfde slede (Eleventh Sleigh) - Abraham Delfos — Abraham Delfos\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Heinrich Hoerle","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58599901200719,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58599920304463,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58599920337231,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58599920369999,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58599920402767,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58599920435535,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58599920468303,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58599920501071,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58599920533839,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58599920566607,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58599920599375,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58599920632143,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/The-Breadwinner_Poster_CompositorV1_1788022993473.jpg?v=1788023364","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/products\/the-breadwinner-heinrich-hoerle","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
