To blinde tiggere 1902

"To blinde tiggere" is a poignant etching by Danish artist Frans Schwartz, created in 1902. The artwork depicts two blind beggars, one seated and one standing, their outstretched hands symbolizing their dependence on charity. The delicate lines and cross-hatching of the etching emphasize the figures' vulnerability and the stark reality of their lives. This piece is a testament to Schwartz's keen observation of everyday life and his ability to portray human emotion with powerful simplicity. The artwork, currently held at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, is a valuable example of Schwartz's social realism.
