Description:
This evocative drawing, crafted in India ink and gray watercolor on delicate Japanese paper, is attributed to Lode Seghers (1905–1983), a prominent figure in Belgian Expressionism. Though unsigned, this piece reflects Seghers’ characteristic style and thematic focus, portraying a poignant scene of working-class motherhood, a subject central to his artistic narrative.

Seghers, renowned for his porticos, still lifes, etchings, and poster designs, flourished as an artist in the 1920s. This piece serves as a testament to his dedication to social themes and his mastery of expressionist techniques.

The provenance includes a pencil inscription on the verso: "ex. coll. Em. De Bohm." The artwork, dating to approximately 1920, is an outstanding addition for collectors of Belgian Expressionism or social realist art.
