This colourful work of art dates back to 1950. It shows 6 construction workers on a high rise building. Health and safety folks today would not be impressed.
The artist integrates the men with the structure with the colours used and also shapes. There is almost a comic book feel.
The artist was French. He started out as an architectural draughtsman.
Nowadays that book would have the subtitle: Why Women live longer than men. It reminds me of that picture of New York workers having their breakfast on one of those high rise constructions.
