About this artwork

'L.S. Lowry's oil painting 'Going to Work' was created in the thick of World War II, in 1943, under the commission of the War Artists Advisory Committee (WAAC). Given the pivotal role heavy industry was taking in the war effort, the WAAC sought to portray this reality in their art selection. Lowry chose to paint a throng of workers flowing into a factory at the Mather & Platt engineering works in Manchester. The white setting was initially interpreted as snow, but Lowry clarified that it was actually meant to represent the industrial haze. The print's colors are meticulously matched to the original painting and authenticated by the Imperial War Museum. Every purchase aids the museum's efforts.

About the artist

L.S. Lowry (1887-1976) was an English artist known for his urban landscapes of industrial scenes in the North of England. He was a self-taught artist, and his style was a combination of Impressionism and Expressionism. He was influenced by the works of French Impressionists such as Monet and Pissarro, as well as the English artist, William Hogarth. Lowry was a shy and reclusive man, and his works often depicted the loneliness of the industrial city. He was awarded the Order of the British Empire in 1968.
