Les Balayeurs, also known as The Street Cleaners, is a notable painting by the Belgian artist Alfred Ost. Created in the early 20th century, this work exemplifies Ost's keen interest in capturing the essence of everyday life and the working class. Alfred Ost, born in 1884, was a prominent figure in the Belgian art scene, known for his versatility and his contributions to various artistic movements of his time.

The painting depicts a group of street cleaners diligently performing their duties, sweeping the streets with brooms. Ost's attention to detail and his ability to convey the physicality and rhythm of their labor are evident in the composition. The figures are rendered with a sense of realism that highlights their individuality while also emphasizing their collective effort. The use of light and shadow in the painting adds depth and dimension, creating a dynamic scene that draws the viewer's eye across the canvas.

Ost's choice of subject matter reflects his interest in social themes and his empathy for the working class. During the period when Les Balayeurs was created, there was a growing awareness and appreciation for the lives and contributions of ordinary people, and Ost's work is a testament to this cultural shift. The painting not only captures a moment in time but also serves as a social commentary on the dignity of labor and the often-overlooked individuals who keep the urban environment clean and orderly.

Les Balayeurs is celebrated for its artistic merit and its historical significance. It is a fine example of Ost's skill in combining realism with a compassionate portrayal of his subjects. The painting remains an important piece in the study of early 20th-century Belgian art and continues to be appreciated for its aesthetic and cultural value.
