On Leave, 1883
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by German artist Wilhelm Zimmer. The artwork, measuring 71x109.5 cm, depicts a heartwarming scene set in the late nineteenth century countryside. A large group of people eagerly awaits the arrival of a soldier who has returned home on leave. The composition showcases an array of emotions and reactions among the diverse crowd. Men and women dressed in formal attire stand side by side, their faces filled with amazement and pride as they witness this joyous occasion. Children can be seen peeking from underneath skirts or standing beside their parents, equally excited to welcome their comrade back home. Zimmer's attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of each individual's posture and facial expression. The soldier stands tall and distinguished in his military uniform, while the women wear beautifully crafted garments adorned with fashionable headwear. The surrounding landscape features lush trees that provide shade for this celebratory gathering. This piece captures not only a specific moment but also reflects broader themes such as family bonds, community support, and patriotism during the time period it was created - the 1880s. "On Leave" serves as a testament to Zimmer's skillful brushwork and ability to convey human emotions through paint strokes. Displayed at the Josef Mensing Gallery in Hamm-Rhynern, Germany, this artwork continues to captivate viewers with its timeless depiction of love and unity amidst times of war.
