Damen, einer Droschke entsteigend 1920

"Damen, einer Droschke entsteigend" (Ladies Alighting From a Hackney Carriage) is an oil-on-canvas painting by German artist Lesser Ury, created in 1920. The painting captures a scene of everyday life in a bustling city, as two women step out of a horse-drawn carriage. Ury's use of Impressionist techniques, evident in the loose brushstrokes and vibrant colors, imbues the painting with a sense of movement and energy. The figures, rendered with delicate details, stand out against the muted background, creating a striking visual contrast. This piece is a captivating glimpse into the urban life of early 20th century Germany.
