The Return, 1907
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Helen Hyde is a captivating print that beautifully captures the essence of rural life in early 20th century America. In this color woodcut, four young Japanese farmworkers are depicted returning home after a long day's work in the fields. Carrying bundles on their backs and walking silently through the night, these women symbolize the resilience and dedication of agricultural workers during that time. Hyde's attention to detail brings out the rustic charm of this scene, with each figure carefully rendered to showcase their individuality and strength. The artist skillfully portrays the weariness on their faces as they navigate through darkness towards their humble abode. This artwork not only celebrates the hardworking spirit of these young women but also serves as a testament to cultural exchange between Asia and America at that time. It highlights how individuals from different continents came together in pursuit of better opportunities in agriculture. Displayed prominently at the Art Institute Chicago, "The Return, 1907" stands as an important piece within Hyde's body of work. Through her artistry, she sheds light on an often-overlooked aspect of American history - the contributions made by Asian immigrants to shaping rural communities across the United States. As we gaze upon this evocative woodcut print today, we are reminded of our shared heritage and appreciate those who have dedicated themselves to working tirelessly for a better future.
