Loading Fish 1931 - 1932

"Loading Fish" is a woodcut print created by American artist Christian Lawton Dull between 1931 and 1932. The print depicts a scene of two men loading fish into a boat at a dock, highlighting the laborious tasks of fishermen. Dull's use of bold, simplified forms and strong contrasts of light and shadow emphasizes the subject matter and creates a sense of dynamism within the composition. The woodcut print exemplifies Dull's style, which often depicted scenes of everyday life, particularly focusing on the working class and the labor involved in their professions.
