"Business-men's Class (mason 20)" is a notable lithograph created by the American artist George Wesley Bellows in 1916. Bellows, a prominent figure in the Ashcan School, is renowned for his dynamic and often gritty depictions of urban life in early 20th-century America. This particular work exemplifies his keen observational skills and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects with both empathy and critical insight.

The lithograph portrays a group of businessmen engaged in a boxing class, a subject that reflects Bellows' fascination with the sport and its cultural implications. Boxing was a recurring theme in Bellows' oeuvre, symbolizing the raw energy and competitive spirit of modern life. In "Business-men's Class," he juxtaposes the physicality of the sport with the refined, often sedentary lifestyle of the businessmen, creating a compelling commentary on the contrasts and contradictions of contemporary society.

Bellows' technique in this lithograph is marked by vigorous, expressive lines and a strong sense of movement, which convey the intensity and dynamism of the scene. The composition is carefully balanced, with the figures arranged in a way that guides the viewer's eye through the image, emphasizing the interactions and tensions between the participants.

The work is also significant for its social commentary. By depicting businessmen in a boxing class, Bellows highlights the intersection of commerce and physicality, suggesting that the competitive nature of business is akin to the physical struggle of the boxing ring. This theme resonates with the broader concerns of the Ashcan School, which sought to depict the realities of modern urban life, often focusing on the experiences of the working class and the complexities of social dynamics.

"Business-men's Class (mason 20)" remains an important example of Bellows' lithographic work and his ability to blend artistic skill with incisive social observation. It continues to be studied and appreciated for its artistic merit and its insightful portrayal of early 20th-century American life.
