Title:	Laborers at Pont Neuf, Paris
Artist:	Ulen, Paul Veronese 'Paul Ulen' (Frankfort, Ohio, 1894 - Cleveland, 1976)
Date:	c. 1927 - 1928
Medium:	Original Pen and Ink and Graphite Drawing
Note:	Paul Veronese Ulen 'Paul Ulen': During the 1920's Paul Ulen extensively studied the printmaking techniques of contemporary British artists. One of Britain's leading artists of the day, Frank Brangwyn, also etched and drew scenes dealing with workers around Pont Neuf, Paris. In both style and substance, this finely crafted drawing entitled, Laborers at Pont Neuf, Paris, bears similarities to Brangwyn's art.
	Paul Ulen and his wife, Jean Ulen (1900-1988), were pivotal figures in the formation of artistic ideas and ideals in Cleveland art during the first half of the twentieth century. While many artists and art educators pursued modernist, abstract trends, the Ulens stood as stalwarts in support of the craftsmanship of representational art. From their positions as principal instructors at the West Technical High School the Ulens influenced several generations of future artists. They also regularly exhibited their own art at the Cleveland Museum of Art and elsewhere during the 1930's and 1940's.
	Following his graduation from high school, Paul Ulen's first unlikely profession was that of a football player, playing professionally for two years with Dayton Oakwoods. He then worked five years as a commercial artist in Dayton, before attending the Cleveland School of Art from 1916 to 1920, and studying under such well known artists as Henry Keller and Frank Wilcox. He began his teaching career at the West Technical School in 1921.
	Both Paul and Jean Ulen received scholarships to complete their art education abroad. They first went to London in 1922-23, with Paul studying at the Slade School, primarily under Henry Tonks (1862-1937). After teaching in Cleveland for four years Jean and Paul Ulen returned to complete their studies at the Slade in 1927 and 1928. At this time they visited Paris twice, as well as parts of Italy, Belgium and Germany. This fine pen and ink drawing depicing laborers at Pont Neuf, Paris, thus probably dates from this period.
	Altogether, Paul Ulen taught art to Cleveland students for forty years. After her husband's death, Jean Ulen catalogued Paul's drawings and watercolors. This drawing bears her catalogue number, '41-81/3', on the verso It also contains the following notations made in either her or his hand, "old man's head no. 5185, woman's head 13530 or 13531 (unknown woman)".
	"Laborers at Pont Neuf, Paris" is one of a grouping of three pen and ink drawings and one watercolor acquired at the same time. Three deal with scenes depicting the famous Paris bridge, Pont Neuf, while the other portrays barges on the River Thames, London. All are unsigned (as are many of Paul Ulen’s drawings) but all bear Jean Ulen’s catalogue numbers on the verso.
