The "Coal Dock Workers" brought by collector Wu Zhixiong showcases the impressionist master Monet's depiction of a group of laborers at sunset in 1875. The subtly glowing sunlight illuminates their figures, creating an evocative visual effect. Monet employs saturated and warm tones to express the joys and struggles of life, reflecting the social and cultural backdrop of the time. This piece is not only a display of art but also a profound reflection of the lives of workers in that era.
