The Cripples (1949) Fine Art Print

Original Medium: Oil on canvas
Description: The Cripples was a composite work of a variety of people with disabilities, which some objected to as being cold-hearted. Lowry rejected these criticisms, referring to the time he suffered profound stress and depression while looking after his mother. Often he would include a figure in a crowd which perhaps represented himself, the artist, such as the tall man walking his dog in the middle ground here, passing through the scene but not quite of it.
