About the workA style of painting emerged in the 1830s that focused on ordinary people from the most varied regions. The fact that they often had to work hard and lived in poverty was not usually reflected in the images. In 1839, the author Hermann Püttmann described this phenomenon as people searching “everywhere for the touching and the human, the beautiful and the good.” This work is one of the earliest examples of its kind; it is also the first picture Adolph Schroedter completed after moving to Düsseldorf from Berlin. He later became famous for his humorous motifs.
