William Gropper Paddling Oil Painting ^Sale

The Paddling is a compelling mid-20th century oil painting by American social realist artist William Gropper. Known for his expressive figures and commentary on everyday labor and working-class life, Gropper often depicted scenes filled with movement and emotional intensity. In this work, the strong, stylized figure paddling through turbulent water reflects the artist’s characteristic bold brushwork, dramatic composition, and earthy color palette. Framed in a classic gilt frame, the painting captures Gropper’s distinctive blend of modernist expression and social narrative, making it a notable example of American figurative painting from the 20th century.
