Review:
Check out the Grohmann Museum which features a unique collection of paintings and sculptures that date from 1580 to the present day.
Eckhart Grohmann initially collected all these masterpieces before donating the priceless assemblage to MSOE in 2001.
The collection is entitled Man at Work, as the paintings reflect the evolution work has undergone over time.
Paintings depict the humble farmer in his pasture, for example, along with miners, glassblowers, and blacksmiths.
As labor progresses in time and in technology, the paintings begin to show men working with machines during the industrial period, or they show factory workers and men carrying out daily tasks near bulky trains. Wandering through this fascinating museum will take you back to a much simpler time before showing you the transformations the world of work has experienced. It is a fascinating journey any visitor would be happy to take.
