Ein Arbeiter aus der _Großen Spinnerei von Edam_ c. 1894

"Ein Arbeiter aus der _Großen Spinnerei von Edam_" (c. 1894) is a pencil drawing by German artist Rudolf Gudden. The drawing, currently located at the Städel Museum, depicts a single worker from the Edam spinning mill standing in profile, wearing a cap and traditional clogs. Gudden's work often focused on the lives of working-class people, capturing the physicality and dignity of everyday labor. The artist's simple yet expressive lines convey the subject's presence and the starkness of his surroundings. This drawing is a testament to Gudden's commitment to social realism.
