Artist:

Date: 1900

Museum: Grohmann Museum (Milwaukee, United States)

Technique: Bronze

This sculpture is of two men pulling on rope. Both are similar in build, both are shirtless, and both are wearing long pants. The one closer to the object being pulled is wearing boots, while the man in the rear is barefoot. The man in the front is leaning backwards, with his left leg out front, straight, and his right back to support him, bent at the knee. He has both hands on the rope, with the rope wrapped once around his right hand. His head is looking to his right side. The man in back is crouched over, pulled, with his right leg back and extended and his left leg forward and bent. He has his head down, rope wrapped once around his right hand, coming over his shoulder and wrapped around his right shoulder about two or three times.
