Woodcutters, 3rd plate (Les bucherons) 

"Woodcutters, 3rd plate" (Les bucherons), a print by Alphonse Legros, depicts two figures in a forest setting. The artist, known for his realism and depiction of working-class subjects, presents a scene of labor with an almost sculptural quality. One woodcutter uses a pole to leverage a log while the other kneels in the foreground, his body contorted with the effort. The print is a powerful example of Legros's ability to capture both the physicality and the dignity of manual labor, drawing the viewer into the world of these woodcutters.
