En beneden waren de menschen 1925

"En beneden waren de menschen" (And Below Were the People), a 1925 woodcut by Dutch artist Fré Cohen, showcases his bold, geometric style. The artwork depicts a windmill in stark black and white, its blades rendered in a series of parallel lines. At the bottom, a group of figures appear in a reduced, almost abstract form, creating a sense of scale and distance. The composition is striking, with the towering windmill dominating the space while the figures below are dwarfed by its presence. The artwork likely explores themes of industry, labor, and the relationship between humans and technology.
